ABC 33/40 recently posted new details about Mayor Langford’s proposed drug prescription plan, providing slightly more elaborate details than those first available when he announced it last week. The amount of money he’s requested each councilor contribute to the program has not changed from the $150,000 reported by Fox 6 on October 7. According to numbers in the newer piece, more than 53,000 people would be eligible for the program. It’s one that Birmingham city councilors think is a great idea, while still worried that the city is not in the right financial position to move forward with it. BTW, both stations have video associated with their stories.
