Get One More Vote for the Budget

Yesterday’s vote on the millage rate (Yes:  Mayor Slesnick, Commissioners Anderson and Withers; No: Commissioners Cabrera and Kerdyk) indicate that what taxpayers need is one more vote–commissioner or mayor willing to fight for the taxpayers and freeze taxes for a significant period of time.

Vague talk by candidates for office on “balanced” spending and taxes, and unnecessary and extravagant capital projects should raise doubts of their qualifications for office.
