Bo.....I saw one gentleman working the people at the 4th of July parade on N Verity Pkwy trying to get petition signatures for a run at council. I did not recognize him. What little I did hear was he wasn't happy with council or the city manager.Unfortunately he got away before I could talk with him & probably sign his petition. ]]> Wed, 06 Jul 2011 13:25:12 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3978&PID=28328&title=the-health-levy#28328 The Health Levy : Its hard to believe that the council... http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3978&PID=28327&title=the-health-levy#28327 Author: Bocephus

When you are incapable of producting revenue through growth, you get it by taxing. The spiral just continues. Too bad Mr. Laubach is the only one who is a competent council person, who understand casue and effect. There is no justifcation to pass this levy, for health, as Rick Trainer (former Director) tripled his salary now working out at Atrium, or will be, the city should not continue to receiw its 1.75% of taxes, as it simply wastes it and gives inadequate services.
 
Middletown is a dead town walking. With the execption of one, everyone has an agenda, its too bad just doesn't include the majority stuck in this town who simplky cannot get out, by a buyer for the house.
 
And to beat it all, in Term 2, Larry Mulligan is looking for a city vision? He's looking to save his Main Street neighborhood, as Smith is looking to get his union supported, as is Jones looking for her numbers of students to be plucked from Middletown, as Picard, Becker, and Allen are there for name recogition for their firms and party affiliation.
 
Going nowhere fast, the history of Middletown for 40 years. Six against 1 competent doesn't add to change, which is indeed, a sad state of affairs in a most apathetic community.

Council approves health levy for fall ballot

MIDDLETOWN — City voters will decide whether they want to pay more property tax as Middletown City Council voted to place a 0.5-mill health district levy on the November ballot.

The levy initiative, approved by a vote of 6-1 during city council’s meeting Tuesday night, will ask voters to approve the 10-year proposal.

The lone dissenting vote on the levy measure, Councilman Josh Laubach, said there has to be other ways to maintain public health services in Middletown besides levies.

“I’m not in support of this for various reasons,” Laubach said. “I think we have to go about this a different way than putting tax initiatives on the ballot.”


THANK YOU MR. LAUBACH. THE ONLY ONE ON COUNCIL WHO CONSISTENTLY DEMONSTRATES THAT HE IS THINKING OF THE PEOPLE HE REPRESENTS.
KINDA DISAPPOINTED WITH MS. SCOTT-JONES ON THIS ONE. ]]> Wed, 06 Jul 2011 07:01:47 +0000 http://www.middletownusa.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3978&PID=28316&title=the-health-levy#28316
