They (LLSVA) doubled the sewer fee last year, so as a senior citizen I feel it;s never too late to right a wrong. Last year-----arecession year) council gave themselves a raise, now rescind that and lower taxes-- you, the county, the state esp. on gas taxes(HIGHEST IN US)The Casino makes millions but does anyone get anything for school taxes that were to be abolished--more b.s. How about lower garbage fees for "SENIORS"?You all spent money on the "ugly Park" and council chambers. What about paving streets and Cleaning drains on the streets?Was anything put out 3 times for bids and ads put in the paper--NO!
