Don't be lured into voting yes

I take issue with the clouded attempt to lure us into voting yes for the extension of the option sales tax. First, there is no option. You have to pay it. Second, I have seen gross misuse of the first years of the current tax.

We have all had cause to seek alignment for our vehicles due to the rotten roads we travel. I certainly do not see them being fixed (by the tax extension).

Don't wait for others to carry the no vote. You do need to know if any new projects are begun that are bonded with the new 20-year option tax, you cannot stop them from continuing for the entire 20 years until those projects are finished.

I am sick and tired of our present city government taking us on a long, questionable ride and keeping us misinformed.
