Wow!
ReplyDeleteCool. He deserves it.
We are lucky to have a guy with as much leadership experience and construction experience on the council. As well as just plain dedicated.
Got my vote.
Maybe Alder Speight can help us rethink the use of TIF, using tax monies to encourage speculation for increasing property taxes. Remodeling and retrofitting makes more sense than the plethora of malls and mall-like 'development' that blights the Monona Drive/Femrite Dr. area!
ReplyDeleteWe need to remodel the use of property tax as a means of providing revenue to the city. Sales tax and income tax are much more progressive than taxing property used for homes.
