In 2008, about 6 months out from the election - began some minor 'promotion' for a tax measure 1A. Three months out from the election a massive campaign was mounted supported by the Chamber, The EDC, The City, HBA - Board of Realtors - quite an extensive list of supporters community wide all led by an organization called 'Citizens For Effective Government.

With each of these two individuals potentially in the mix, Terry quite competent, Sallie marginally so, it brings up what appears to be a definite problem for the entire region: The total lack of unity, cohesion and true cooperation between the city, the county and the related civic organizations that must work well in a coordinated fashion to meet the growing needs of an increasingly unemployed population.

This tax has been a direct slap in the face by Mrs Lathen and cohorts at not only the city, the concept of 'unity' but the Mayor and does not address the best needs of the community. To my knowledge, after minor research, and confirmed by the county, this tax measure has not been discussed by the county with any single other entity in the area!
