After listening
to hype, vote No
Well, it's that time again. You know the story of the wolf and the sheep. I've listened to the hype.
When will we hear about the thousands and thousands the POA is saving by not having to maintain the 600 miles of roads and the expense of equipment, manpower and material expense?
Also, no mention of the money saved by not having to maintain a police department and all the fleet of vehicles, and also not having to maintain a fire department and all the vehicles that go with that department.
With all this relief of responsibility, why are we maintaining such a high-paid general manager? With all of his responsibilities reduced, why has his pay not been reduced and all his perks?
I'm sorry people, but I don't believe we are being told the true story of all the needs of the POA.
The only thing they retained from the city is the water department, which I understand is actually a profit maker.
I do believe the best thing I have heard lately are the words "Go Away POA." I am tired of the baloney and deception. I am voting "no" on the assessment proposal.
