WPCNR MR. & MRS. & MS. WHITE PLAINS VOICE. May 8, 2006: A couple of WPCNR regular readers have posed some questions for the Tony Snows of the City Administration. Here we go:
John,
I'll accept the challenge set forth in your latest posting on WPCNR.com.
It is simply this:
Why is it, when the city budget is out of balance, taxes of various sorts always go up,
and there is never any talk of cutbacks or other reductions in expenditures?
And if you allow me to really indulge:
Why is it, that despite the utter rage it generates in residents and visitors alike,
do parking fees keep increasing, and enforcement continue to be so vicious
and overzealous? Does no one realize in City Hall that some of these fees
are a significant fraction of some people's take home pay for a week?
Sincerely,
Aaron Woodin
