Good.
BR was living an unsustainable lie by supplementing their budget with funds from outside the city. This should make them self examine and spend funds where appropriate. CATS and COA should be first in line.

St. George residents don't pay for CATS, that's funded by Baton Rouge and Baker property taxes and federal grants, not the general fund. It was renewed last year so that's not going away anytime soon.
COA is funded by a parish wide property tax and grants, so their funding won't be affected by St. George incorporation either.
Unless I'm completely wrong about this (always a possibility) St. George incorporation won't do shite to cut funds from the bloated budgets of CATS, BREC, COA, etc. (departments/organizations with a dedicated funding souce.) The cuts will have to come from this list (general fund expenditures).
