Pam Iorio Rick Baker listen to Bob Crawford he should be MAYOR

Bob gets the PERFECT PERSON OF THE DAY award. Thank you, Bob. And a shout out to the others in the 'opines' who make more sense than any of these people who somehow find themselves lying to us all in public office. By the way, my taxes are MINISCULE. I'm just interested in doing the right thing --- they should not have been spending all that money like pigs in dookey and Pam Iorio and the growth and development dept (add them to the stalking list by the way yawn video and pics, for GODS SAKE) did not need 100 new cars and she did not need to increase her staff and shop all over the country for high-priced new thieves and miscreants. We can find the worst of the worst right here in Tampa, eh???

Mayors vent fears of losing control of taxes June 7, story

Don't we elect mayors, commissioners and legislators to represent us? So how come when there is a rare, clear mandate from the people, in this case to reduce taxes, our honorable "representatives" seem to be doing everything possible to prevent it from happening?

Come on, guys, we need some help here. And don't tell me that reducing taxes means no police or fire protection and the closing of libraries. We had all of these services in 2001 and were doing just fine.

What we didn't have were the plethora of city works projects, like sidewalks and planted medians, fancy new pedestrian stoplights, multiple bridge replacements, etc. Take a look at the projects completed by your various departments since 2001 and you'll find plenty that we couldn't have afforded before. That's where the extra money went, the money you received simply because real estate values increased, the money we don't want to give you anymore.

The problem today is that when real estate values drastically increased, the millage (based on your budgets) should have seen a matching decrease. Instead, you took the unexpected windfall and spent it! Don't you understand that we don't have more cash just because the value of our homes increased?

Roll back your budgets to, say, 2001, cancel any new departments and terminate any positions added since then, and I dare say most of this outcry will go away. After all, the Save Our Homes cap wasn't a problem until you took advantage of the real property valuation increases.

Please quit fighting us, join our side and help us - as you were put into office to do.

Bob Crawford, St. Petersburg
