Evidently our Mayor didn't have math in school. I listened to him on Fisher and he said the 78 cents per thousand would only cost the owner of a $100,000 property $4 per year because the city only taxes 48% of assessed value. Even if that were true, how can you raise a tax over 75% and only have a difference of four bucks?
I like QCI's thought on taxing cell phones to save public safety jobs. If citizens can come up with these ideas, why can't the city council. I noticed the Queen of Denial with her face in a camera saying "I told you so". Well, if even a smidgen of that money were to ever go toward any stormwater problems, you would have a point. Since it went for street sweepers and the general fund, you do not.
And as far as charging certain trouble spots for emergency services, Hean tried that when he was Alderman and it didn't go anywhere. I doubt it would now because if you look, more calls go to the low-income complexes than anywhere else.
And finally, I wish Sarah Kolb would have gotten her haircut before the trial started instead of showing her true self now.

You have to cut Sarah Kolb just a tiny bit of slack. She's just getting ready for some hard-core prison sex. She wants to look good for all the bitches. They’re greasing the mop handles as we speak.
