The New Era - All about Sweet Home since 1929

Editor:

I agree with Marilyn Taggart Schlim that the City Council doesn’t care about the people of Sweet Home.

I would like an explanation of where the almost $200,000 taken from the police department and library went. Not that it went for “administrative” costs.

I have to wonder if it lined somebody’s pocket. It would be helpful and might put people’s mind at ease if the City Council published a financial report explaining where and how all the Sweet Home taxpayers money is being spent.

After all, it’s our money you’re spending and we have a right to know where and what it’s being spent on.

I have stated before that I plan on voting no on the budget this year. If the Sweet Home Police would become its own entity, I would support them.
