of course the only way is to hand it off to the home owners, no other possible solution can be found???? maybe cut off some of those gas cards for city employees? drive older cars with good maintainence, cut some of the perks and benefits,maybe some closer scrutiny of where the money really goes would give some answers as to where the money has gone and is going. seems like the solution is always to hand it off to those who are blessed enough to actually own something until they have to loose it because of the taxes. hey, then maybe the city could buy it with their budget tax dollars. there is an idea!!
