Should the current Major City Goals & Other Important Objective continue, or should the City Council consider other priorities during the next two years? (Please choose 5 priorities)
Current Other Important Objective: Downtown Vitality (Continue to improve safety, infrastructure investment, and maintenance in the Downtown)
Neighborhood Wellness
Infrastructure Maintenance (such as roads, sidewalks, and bike paths)
Water Management
Other - Lower local taxes
Given the current fiscal constraints, new projects or services will require prioritization and potential trade-offs unless they can generate offsetting revenue. How might the City adjust current projects or services to accomplish any new priorities?
Reduce the climate change associated costs. The amount of time and money spent to combat climate change does not provide a benefit worth the cost. Our town is smaller than a tiny drop of the inputs and causes of climate change, yet it’s a top budget priority. This is backwards.
Second. If there are fiscal constraints, why spend multi-millions on a controversial bike paths (i.e. anholm bikeway). A project like this, even if it was without controversy, is a “bonus”. And even the strongest proponent of the project should be able to admit it is controversial for the community. This project and those like it are not and should not be a priority. This is like a family going on an expensive vacation when they are 10,000’s of thousands of dollars deep in debt. The priority is again, backwards. If there are fiscal constraints, then prioritize getting right fiscally before embarking on these types of major projects.
