Wake Wired

There's a sewer monster living underneath Cameron Village. There's a man in Moore Square who plays football all by himself. Somewhere in Raleigh, we've heard, there's a kudzu vine that looks just like Alfred Hitchcock. These small marvels don't always fit inside a regular newspaper. A lot of them are too funny for those highfalutin' pages. So we've tucked him in here, where they'll be safe. Take a look and let us know about the oddities in your life. We'll show up and snap a picture.

On the chopping block

Next week the City Council will hold a public hearing to discuss City Manager Russell Allen's proposed budget. Allen released his budget last week, and it recommends reducing or eliminating funding for a number of local groups. Those groups are likely to plead their case at the June 2 hearing, which starts at 7 p.m. in the council chamber at City Hall, 222 W. Hargett St.

Here's a list of those that would have their funding reduced or eliminated under Allen's proposed budget:

* Groups whose funding would be cut by 10 percent: DHIC, Raleigh City Museum, Healing Place, Kryan Anderson Academy, Kids Voting, Passage Home CDC, Southeast Raleigh Assembly, Downtown Development for the Downtown Raleigh Alliance

* Groups whose funding would be elminated: International Affairs Council, Lost Generation Task Force, Raleigh Area Development Authority

* Some arts nonprofits would also be hit, as Allen's budget recommends reducing the city's per capita spending on art from $4.50 per resident to $4. (This would reduce overall grants by 11 percent.)

* A number of downtown events would also be reduced or eliminated, including MOvies in the Market, St. Patrick's Day event, Christmas Parade floates, Bike Fes and Raleigh Wide Open. No word yet on whether the city could still afford to hire the likes of Eddie Money to perform at RWO.
