Questioning a $300,000 City Expenditure Not a 'Political Ploy'

Carousel_image_3aa41e607395e93e6a3a_mini_magick20170920-6762-1l92dum

Summit Common Council’s decision to borrow and then spend $300,000 for “stamped decorative concrete” (aka cobblestones) in the downtown was not supported by the downtown businesses, and the Democratic candidates for Council released a video criticizing this project as a waste of taxpayer’s money.

Council President McTernan responded with a letter calling this a ...

My opponent, in a recent candidate statement on TAP, has proposed “improving” the downtown by effectively raising taxes on property owners if they have vacant space. As they stated: “We will look….. for ways to ensure that our tax policies encourage commercial landowners to fill vacancies expeditiously” That’s sugar-coated legalese ...
