Our city government has allowed paid ads in the printed news letter for a couple years now. As far as I can tell, there hasn't been any problems, I certainly haven't heard of any anyhow.

Don't you think they have ads on their site that otherwise could have find their way to your site? Adsense is not an endless source of cash. Advertisers can spend each dollar only once. If they spend it on governments, their cash is lost for your business.
