Only about twenty people went to last night’s school board forum. That’s a bit of a rebuttal to the notion of building something so that people will come.
As of now nobody has felt moved to comment on Trib’s story about the forum or the candidates. I learned that only one candidate opposes the operational levy. Most have their doubts that any level of funding increase will pass.
I also learned in today’s Trib details about a levy referendum being offered by the City for Parks and Recreation and also that fewer and fewer of us residents will be left holding the property tax burden bag as the County takes in more tax forfeit houses. There will be something like a ten fold increase. Think regressive taxes – that put a heavier burden on the poor. Quick, go out and pass some more local levies.
Also another Democrat has thrown his hat in the ring to challenge Chip Craavack. He wants to bring the troops home.
