Ed Dumas Percent Quotations

The county executive believes this legislative agenda will address the multi-tiered level of fraud that is very much at the root of the high tax problem. What he is trying to do is to make one business official accountable for a district's money and to treat budgets as if it were their own. The only remedy now is for communities to vote down a school budget, and that ultimately hurts the children. Seventy percent of our tax bill is made up of school district costs, and those rising costs are crippling those who live here and sending them to more affordable pastures. Those who are elected would now be accountable at the end of their term.
