Spending on Senior Housing Makes No Sense

Editor,

You had two articles in the March 11-17, 2010 edition of the News-Press: one dealt with the proposed enormous increase in real estate taxes and significant decrease in City services; the second article concerned the Council's preliminary approval of $2 million loan from the City (plus special zoning exceptions) for the construction of a public housing structure in the City designated for senior citizens.

In particular, his call for a "significant public investment in parking," brought to mind a topic I addressed in a June 2002 News-Press guest commentary.

Editor,

Thanks to the CBC for sponsoring a convention that was truly democracy at its very finest. Of course I was disappointed that I did not receive their endorsement---so many expressed their support for me---thank you.
