When times are tough, it’s time to cut back on luxuries. With the looming raise in water and sewer taxes, a permanent Proposition 2½ override, and property assessments redone ahead of the normal five-year interval, I think we can say, times are tough.
As citizens, we’re all chipping in with these higher fees, and cutting back on our luxuries. It would be nice if city government reciprocated. I propose an elimination of the Community Preservation Act (CPA). We can always revisit it in the future, but in the current climate, it seems like a luxury.
