"broke" Muskegon County never ending spending

Homes to bank on:

The land bank put up a $5,000 bond to stop condemnation on the Washington Street house, then put about $50,000 into improvements.

"In 2007, it purchased 21 properties off the tax reversion list. This year the board still is deciding how many properties in which to invest."

Our totally insolvent county tells us, endlessly, there are no places to cut spending but it somehow finds the money to fund the employees and improvements for their own tax payer funded, non-volunteer "habitat for humanity".
