Folks --
Many Wicomico County citizens are concerned that the county's property tax revenue cap is a major obstacle to progress and growth.
Next Thursday, October 20, the Wicomico Neighborhood Congress will present two knowledgeable and articulate spokesmen with somewhat divergent views in a "community dialogue" on this important topic. See the attached flyer for details.
Please try to attend, and bring your friends and neighbors.
Questions will be entertained from the audience; and we hope to have the session broadcast also on PAC14 and WSDL radio.
Mike Pretl
This affair features Mike Pretl, Joe Ollinger and Memo Diriker, all of the school of Take, Take, Take and Spend, Spend, Spend. After all, government knows what's best for you.
ReplyDeleteWho is saying that the County's revenue cap is a major obstacle to progress and growth?
ReplyDeleteIf it is an obstacle to growth of our local government - well that is good news - and thus is not an obstacle to progress.
As for myself - I'm tired of a minority of the population trying to dictate the views and principles for a majority of the population.
Bottom line - LONG LIVE THE REVENUE CAP.
attend the meeting; let you presence and voice be heard.
ReplyDeletePhil Tilghman will see that its all on PAC 14. He and Pretl are Pollitt's biggest supporters to kill the tax cap.
ReplyDeleteMike Pretl obviously knows what's best for us so just shut up, bend over and take your medicine.
ReplyDeleteYou had better NOT lift that cap if you wish to remain in office! Tax revenues suffer from MISUSE & MISUSE alone! Use the road money for the roads, the education money for that, not SUV's for the higher-ups...

ReplyDeleteDITTO!
"Many Wicomico County citizens are concerned that the county's property tax revenue cap is a major obstacle to progress and growth."
ReplyDeleteBesides yourself, name some!
We don't need any more unbridled growth. Progress is a separate issue and not connected to the Cap.
ReplyDeleteIf the curent administration can't run the county at the current tax rates we will find someone that can, in the next election.
ReplyDeleteWe, the resident/taxpayer/voter need to remind them of what they were elected to do....represent us - not their careers. This is a great opportunity for us to voice our support FOR the cap and the limits it imposes on spending.
ReplyDeleteHere we go again - special interest trying to persuade the disgruntled to rise-up for what can best be described as a lost cause.
ReplyDeleteCan't the establishment - (Teachers Union, BOE, Higher Education) - realize that there are limits to what our taxpayers can pay?
I say Ba-Humbug to the educational showboat as I'm all in favor of keeping the Revenue Cap.
