Victoria,
Can you please elaborate on your concept of 'those who are doing the heavy lifting taxwise' ? I'm trying to figure out who falls into this group.
If I fall into your grouping, I would appeal to you not to thank the governor in my name. I would gladly pay higher taxes to retain some of the services getting the axe.
Respectfully,
Jason Stone / Nokomis

"[Spring Cleanup Saturdays] was a very useful project that not only got rid
of everyone's excess "stuff" but also tires, paint, brush, Buckthorn,
metal, and cement. But without the city's ability to contribute, Spring
Cleanup in all Minneapolis neighborhoods is going to go away. But it's a
shame that choices like that have to be made at all."
Vicky replies:
There is one more choice that Mr. Cross didn't mention: Property owners
can be responsible for cleaning up their own messes. Neighbors might even
ante up and get a dumpster - they're not that expensive.
I do agree with Steve Cross on one point however. Thank you Governor
Pawlenty. Those of us who do the heavy lifting taxwise sincerely
appreciate your efforts.
