Are we going to have to pay every time we go to a park?
How does it impact our libraries?
Are we going to have to pay every time we go to a library?
In other words, the county is saying that the average savings will be about $2,000-something on the property tax cut if this passes, but you might make that up in fees and services of maybe having to go to some of these...
PLACES AND PAY, BUT I JUST REALLY WANT TO HAVE AN ALL-ENCOMPASSING PICTURE.
I'M NOT, BELIEVE ME, I THINK THAT WE CAN CUT AND I THINK WE CAN FIND EFFICIENCIES, BUT I STILL WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE COMMUNICATING WITH THE PUBLIC, YOU KNOW, WHAT THAT LEVEL OF CUTS AND EFFICIENCIES IS AND HOW WE MIGHT HAVE TO GO DEEPER
if we're finding it to be an issue.
That's all.
I want us to be very transparent in what we're thinking about.
I want to make sure that the public knows as we go through this little journey everything that we're thinking about and also how it might impact their everyday life.
That's all.
IF YOU'D LIKE, COMMISSIONER, WE CAN HAVE A FULL LIST OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR REDUCTIONS AT THE JULY 2ND MEETING AS YOU'RE CONTEMPLATING THE MILLAGE RATE AND THE CITY HALL PROJECT.
WE CAN SHARE WITH YOU SOME OF OUR PRELIMINARY THOUGHTS AND IDEAS AS IT CONCERNS BOTH PROPERTY TAX REFORM AND CITY HALL
AND THEN I THINK THAT WILL HELP EQUIP THE COMMISSION WITH GIVING US DIRECTION.
THAT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL.
I KNOW THAT MY OFFICE GETS LOTS OF CALLS AND COMMUNICATIONS, FOR INSTANCE, IF THERE IS A WATER BREAK, A LINE BREAKS OR WHATEVER, OUR STAFF HAS BEEN SO AMAZING, PUBLIC WORKS, UTILITIES GETTING OUT THERE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, FIXING THINGS.
SO IF WE MAKE CUTS TO DEPARTMENTS LIKE THAT, WILL THAT IMPACT?
WILL PEOPLE HAVE TO KNOW,
you know, if there's an issue, we might just not be able to get there as quickly as we can.
I just want us to be honest with people so that they know that there might be an impact in terms of service.
