About It's Our Money
Every year, city government spends slightly more than $4
billion. Where does all that money come from? More importantly,
where does it go? Are we getting the most bang for our tax buck?
“It's Our Money” is a jointproject between
Philadelphia Daily News and WHYY, funded by the William
Penn Foundation, designed to answer these questions.

CITY HOWL HELP DESK: THE MESS NEXT DOOR
A few months ago, we
launched City Howl, a Web site that allows citizens to post their raves
or rants about city services (check out
www.thecityhowl.com).
This week, we look at what to do when your neighbors
