My vote against bonds is vote against cronyism
In response to “Bonds aim to put seats where they’d be filled” (Oct. 9):My reason for voting against the school bonds: the reluctance of county and city officials to require developers to pay for more of the costs of growth.
Progressive communities require impact fees, the dedication of land for parks or schools or a financial equivalent.
This will be my first no vote on a school bond issue. The message is for city and county officials: Move from the influence of real estate interests to the welfare of us all.
