Levy Poll

As reported last night, the police and fire levies failed by quite a fair margin. Unofficial results:

Fire: For-6,989; Against 10,067
Police: For-6,825; Against 10,227

Why do you think they both failed? Take the poll to the right and let us know your thoughts.

Police and fire personnel fine public servants, but many of the ads were 'over the top' and self-serving beyond belief I'm afraid. It was too much at one time and public safety numbers should have been raised over time for a better outcome, and city's attention not
distracted........

I have said this before and will now repeat. The city of GF budget priorities are all screwed up. When you fund ill thought out projects (ECP/HGS) that loose millions, the people eventually figure it out. They sent a LOUD message regarding these levies, but I'll bet you see little or no change at city hall!

We need a NEW commission elected this fall and they need to then RUN this city responsibly and clean out those whom do not intelligently serve the public of this city.....
