Wake up early after an exciting Friday Night High School Football Game at Victory Stadium.
Morning: Rake loose leaves in yard to the edge of my street for City to Pick-Up.
Lunch: Go to the Market Building and eat at one of many local food vendors and pay the highest meals tax in the nation.
Afternoon: Get in a relaxing 18 holes of golf at Countryside.
Unfortunately, the only thing we can actually do on this list is pay the excessive meals tax.
The tax increase was based on an projected RCPS estimate and when the final numbers came down from the State, the deficit was much less than predicted. Where will all that extra money go?
Add to this the agreement City Council so quickly broke with the Raleigh Court Neighbors over PH stadium usage and lighting. Do these guys realize who they are working for? Their salaries may not be as out of control as their Council counterparts in Bell, CA, but their attitudes certainly are.
