CollingwoodToday welcomes letters to the editor at [email protected] or via our website. Please include your daytime phone number and address (for verification of authorship, not publication).The following letter is in response to the latest budget decisions made by council.
With reference to your article concerning a tax increase of 1.7%, because the town plans on using funds from the surplus to keep the increase under 2%.
I disagree with this short-sighted approach.
It's just putting off until the future what needs to be done today. Perhaps the town should start with a blank piece of paper when they prepare their annual budget. They might then realize that a lot of their line items are not needed.
