Do you believe ANYTHING that the maintenance fee pays for did not increase this year? Because if anything DID increase this year (like electricity increasing $300K) then either the maintenance fee must increase or something that we enjoy now must be dropped.

Hey, I'm all for dropping every street light and being able to see the stars again but I suspect that suggestion would not get very far.
I second the motion on the streetlights. I can read in my living room with the light pollution coming in off of my street. At least put them on motion detectors or greatly lower the wattage in the bulbs.
