Was interviewed yesterday

Yesterday we voted on 4.2 mil property tax increase in our town. http://berkleyschoolbond.com/

Its been a very hot topic in these trying economic times for the residents of our tiny town. We just voted down a large increase the end of this year to remodel our community center.

It just amazes me that they feel without these "improvements" our property values will fall even more. What world do they live in.

As you can probably tell, you know how I voted. Before you go lumping me into one party or another, I have never voted against anything that benefited our schools or children. This time they were asking for way too much at the worse time possible.

So the wife and I voted and stopped at a restaurant afterwords. A small town news reporter asked us our thoughts. If they print our interview ill post it.

The results are in and the bond was voted down by 69%
