That should be about the same time a CAT 3
hurricane hits their building.

How apropos.

I didn’t vote for anyone on the CSC why do they think they can raise my taxes? They haven’t done anything for any children in Leon County. CSC has to go, they are takers of our money and it only benefits them. Go look at all the brand-new high-end cars parked in their lot on St. Augustine Rd…

Always keep in mind that the first person to propose the idea and even mention the name Children’s Services Council was non-other than Mayor John Dailey back when he was a County Commissioners. He pushed to have it put on the ballot because he knew the uninformed voters would be certain to vote for something that was presented to them as a program to “help the little children.” You can’t vote against something that’s going to help the little children can you? What kind of a monster would that make you?

Shouldn’t this say the revenue collected will go up by 10% because of the increase in property value? The millage rate itself will not go up by 10%. The way it is currently worded that’s what it sounds like you’re saying.

The only way to fix this is through the legislature. There is no way unelected members of this (or any) community should have the power to raise taxes. If it is not downright unconstitutional, it ought to be. The next CSC meeting ought to be packed.

@ Maria = From what I remember, Desloge and Lindley were the only ones against the CSC but Desloge was the only one to Vote against it.

Here are members of the CSC. I have an acquaintance on this committee, and I have contacted that person to let them know that I oppose the increase.

As expected… Not a shred of evidence or empirical data that supports the existence of this operation or shows this slush fund has benefitted anyone.

Classic Marxocrat operation… “Always More; Never Enough”

SHUT THIS BOONDOGGLE DOWN
