Dear Editor, I hesitate to write because, no doubt, there are much more intelligent and informed people who are equally outraged and can quote figures to make their point, but this new property tax increase is just more than I can swallow without gagging … as they wash the red ink off their hands in the seemingly bottomless potential basin of property tax revenue, I wonder if the City Council feels even the smallest bit of regret at their budgetary boondoggle? Would there even be a problem if we weren't giving all our tax money away to developers of redundant shopping districts? Is there any law, actual or commonsensical, that the City Council considers inviolate, regardless of the potential revenue? For example, why are those aquifer recharge signs still up along the road? They obviously don't mean diddly. With the new transparency in the Swedish banking system, has anyone investigated Will Wynn et al. for hidden bank accounts? I don't see any other reason for some of their decisions other than personal gain.
With lots of questions and lots of bile, Adam Allert
