  |
|
On Tuesday night, May 27th, the city council voted to amend the franchise tax for Atmos energy by 1%, thus adding more burden to the people of Midlothian. This increase will add additional monies to the city, which will be wasted on frivolous projects like the restoration of a fire truck. With a price tag of over $70,000 this is NOT a need for the running of the city. Such frivolous spending is a waste of the taxpayer's hard earned money.Projects like this should be funded by outside donations. Apparently there must not be a whole lot of people interested in the project, since they only raised $600 from donations. Apparently the city council never thinks about the citizens, except the one council member who voted against it. We had a chance to change this type of waste in the last election, but there wasn't enough people to vote to make the change, so we have to put up with this foolishness for a while longer.
