While Mr. Wiley’s response is long, he failed to address why so many were concerned about the cost last Thursday. If he was there, why didn’t he speak up?
If you thought the 25% tax increase over the roads was bad, you haven’t seen anything yet.
I think more of us would be interested in the cost for one fire department in Sumter county instead of two.

This was a reasoned response to the complex subject being discussed here. Where I came from in New England there was no way a high cost item with fuzzy math like this would ever pass on a first or second vote. It took 6 years to pass a bill to pay for a new police station. The price was cut in half in year six and the town of 7000 approved the expense.
