NO MORE RAISES IN PROPERTY TAXES!!!!!

I think it's a shame that the superintendent gets paid 250,000 a year plus benefits if they quit buying new iPads and paying for the apps they would have more money

The last 2 years, their budgets were NOT decreased even though schools were closed AND they receive more tax money after that bill last year. Yet kids still only get uncrustables, chips, carrots and a chocolate milk 3 days a week for lunch.

So you can tax property owners more? Hell no!!! Property owners pay the bulk of school financials, while the County is awash in cash!! NO MORE INCREASED TAXES!!!

Safe parking programs have a proven track record of successfully taking people from being homeless into having a place of their own. Safe parking programs cut down on costs to cities for ambulance calls, police calls, visits to emergency rooms and mental health crises that costs taxpayers money.

Perhaps? Hiding the un-housed in various random locations doesn't solve much. This is just another band-aid solution! Seems just the latest adaptation of "kicking the can down the road"...?
