Muskegon voters to face city charter issues

Muskegon voters to face city charter issues
The sx charter amendments would:
• Eliminate the civil service system.
• Change the city's fiscal year.
• Change the time for city property tax collection.
• Change the date when the budget must be submitted.
• Eliminate the charter provision for board of review sessions.
• Eliminate the city August primary.
Many of the amendments have cost-saving implications.
Both the changes in fiscal year and tax collection provide one-time budget benefits if the city commission were to enact the change."

Wow!

Another fab example of The Chronicle's famous "in depth" reportage!
....or more of the same lazy, cheerleading for the same idiotic "leadership" that has destroyed our city.

This could be a BIG issue if The Chronicle would allow analysis and a legitimate debate of each amendment.

It would also be a first for our dying local newspaper.

Maybe if I got off my own butt and started digging into it, I could gin up some interest.
