Hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent on out-of-county attorneys (swindle lawsuit). And then you have the three percent raise to county employees. I don't understand it. We're not talking about a lot of money here. |
It never cost the county more money because the more taxes came in, the more was paid to the collectors. So the only time collectors got more was when the county got more money. |
The collectors overlooked that because the percentage worked on the other (property) tax. It was a big burden, chasing down that $5 and getting a quarter. Now, though, with the cut on the other they feel this headache. |
