Davis said she wanted to build a restroom facility in place of portable toilets at a city park, but was not happy when city staff quoted her $300,000 for its construction. "We build homes for $300,000," Davis said in her public comment to council members. "They wanted me to allow you to spend $152,000 for swing sets — yeah I'm going to object to that because you're gouging my community from needed resources to do meaningful things."
