They are not far from me, they are beyond broke, in the hole this year fro something like 2 years wroth of taxs.
This is just an example of more fiscal silliness seen nationwide. If you, as a local government entity, are unable to fund the simplest of services, you might need to disband the city/borough/town/etc. and start again a point one.
I know if I am making less this year I need to spend less this year. It's a simple, but overlooked concept, especially in government type circles.
