Report Inappropriate Comments

Patientman, while I partially understand your point I disagree to a certain extent. Yes, sometimes the comments get somewhat off topic when it comes to Correntes personal past fiscal record. However, these comments are about policy. I'm not sure how asking a candidate for mayor how he would pay for his proposals is "goading Mr Corrente" or how it makes these comments unreadable.

Speaking for myself I will NOT allow Corrente to comment without being fact checked. As a taxpayer, it is my responsibility to call him out for his tax delinquency, his lies and the empty rhetoric he calls a "plan". It is perfectly fair to ask a candidate for mayor how they'd pay for their proposals. I'm sorry you disagree, but I will continue to comment where I see fit, especially when it comes to policy. I welcome your reply, and really do hope you understand where I'm coming from. Its not that I'm a supporter of the former Mayor, or the acting mayor. I am just very much against an unqualified candidate pretending he could be mayor.

As far as the tax increase it is very unfortunate the council went this route. I also think in an election year the council was afraid to make tough choices that are needed. I'm optimistic that even this council knows that max tax increases every year is not a solution to governing long term. The only way this city will dig out of this mess is 2 ways

1. All hands on deck approach from every city department, employee and politician

2. An honest approach from the Council that looks at EVERYTHING
