How many tax increases did we have during his 8 years? Bart says only 2, but the records show at least 16.<BR/>How many tax increases does Mayor Ballard have under his name?

Unless the Center Township gang rigs the voting, which is quite conceivable, all township assessors will be eliminated in Marion County this year. I agree that the savings shouldn't be counted until the referendum is actually completed. Don't confuse your hate for all Republicans, art/wilson, for my fair critique of Bart Peterson's stewardship of Indianapolis.Gary R.

Not only is he dishonest about his budget, I dont think many of the townships will vote to do that, if any. Then how does he account for that shortfall. You need to let go of your hate for Bart. He is gone. He is not mayor, Concentrate on the actions of this mayor..artfugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364503656694166926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-30537662415441735332008-09-14T11:01:00.000-05:002008-09-14T11:01:00.000-05:00Ha!
