"SPENDING & TAXING OUT OF CONTROL"

CASSELBERRY FLORIDA MAYOR has been purchasing privately owned land ,predomantly business and then tearing the buildings down with our city tax dollars.WHEN did being land Barron's become legal to continue taxing our citizens?How can the city continue to raise taxes when they are purchasing properties with our tax dollars without selling off land to return those tax dollars to maintain our city?The city Mayors position is not a monarchy to build land wealth off the backs of us peasants.Wait a minute ,we are not peasants and doesn't anyone contest being taxed while the mayor and commissioners hoard properties at our expense?
We are not talking about one or two properties,we are talking about dozens and dozens while the city has put special assessments[new taxes] for the citizens to bear because they have overspent and turned to new taxation rather than selling off land they purchased with our taxes or just restrain from purchasing more land. It just doesn't make any logical sense does it?
The city has been holding onto properties for years that should be returned into the land market and tax rolls.The city does not need any new fancy buildings or to build a "RODEO DRIVE" . We don't need flyovers we don't need a "downtown"or the city to design and build anything!! What we need is for the city to run our local government resposibly and that is by providing services,public services such as:municipal water,roads,trash removal,police,fire/rescue services and management services for the comunity from the city hall. The city is not to be "ENTERTAINING" and wasting money WHILE NOT HAVING MONEY TO PAY THE BILLS!I guess these people do not have a lick of sense nor any decency of moral values to treat our community with such disrespect. Land north side of derby shire the city has held onto for years and still plans a fire house there where it is not permitted because of the residential zone and EPA sensitive land that could be a park or returned to build a few single homes .Threatening the development is not what the city should be doing would the mayor put a fire station across the street from her house? Absolutely not, then why are they trying to force this on our residents?It shows they just do not care. Is this the kind of people we can tolerate in office?Absolutely not! The mayor and commissioners need to be removed from public office and barred from holding any public office in the future. They should be examined how many properties the city owns , the cost spent to purchase those properties and the properties returned to the tax roll[sold] and the proceeds from the income from selling of that land returned to the citizens by reducing the taxes required to run the city instead of bilking the city with run away spending and tax burdens such as banner/flags and fancy streetlights that do not provide us with any more light and flags that say casselberry on them.We know where we live.
I sure would like to drive a "Rolls Royce",but I can not afford one, then why should the Mayor force us to have to pay for a lifestyle our city can not surely afford. Lets hold the mayor and Commissioners accountable and/or have them removed from office?We should not be purchasing land for Parks and Building developments[retail] if the city needs to have anymore parks ,let it be by public donated land and private donations. We would like to hear your opinions,leave a comment.
