Open Forum On Tonight's City Council Meeting

This Post will allow you to make comments throughout the meeting this evening. 

22 comments:

  1. The "fiscal impact"...thank you, Debbie Campbell, who finally pushed to have annexations start paying their city taxes WHEN ANNEXED! I would hate to know how many have been annexed years ago and still aren't paying city taxes. Also, thank you to the Moore family for working through this with the city council as everyone tried to get to a good outcome.

  2. Nice job of charging the rt 50 property city taxes, water, and sewer, but conveniently leaving owners to pay for garbage form private contractors instead of providing city services for this????
    City taxes include trash services. Pay up, Salisbury!

    1. Sanitation is a separate fee.....you do not pay it unless ylo receive it. A common misconception. Don't worry, other will always be people around to tell the facts instead of conspiracy fiction.

    2. Did the city ever provide for commercial users??? Why should they now??? Oh..that's right...your choice didn't win.

  3. These payments per lot for revitalization...Jim and Barrie have been trying to get their hands on those $s forever. I fear that they now have the "partners" on council to get that done to the benefit of their cronies.

    1. Growth pays for growth. Think of what it will take to provide services 3 miles or more outside of the city....just wait till they annexWango....they can call it Wangobury.

  4. Mumbled something about only providing a gravity sewer main. With a hotel going up there, and being what, 8 miles from the WWTP, a pump station comes to mind. Or two! Now Three Lower Counties owns south property was applied for use there. More pump station. More WWTP load that can't handle the present load. Anyone getting this?

  10. 8:06, think about that mess at the North end where construction of new businesses had to be halted because public works had messed up the calculation and a new pump station was needed right away.

  11. So is the Salisbury Police Department and the Salisbury Fire Department going to respond to calls all the way to Wor Wic Community College now?

  12. Why is it that people think they should receive service that everyone else pays for , free?

  13. I've heard that Jim had another fit over some questions raised about the budget. The broadcast went dark. Imagine that. I also heard that the vote was 3 to 2 in favor of the budget. It's still a 3 to 2 vote. It's just that the new council majority doesn't mind fleecing the taxpayers one bit.

  15. 9:56 If Salisbury annexes it, then they are responsible for it!

  16. Why is it fair only 50% of city residents have their property taxes increase and the other 50% don't? I'm on soical security and can't afford any more tax increases.
