Anaheim Tax Recision Was Right Move
- Share via
Much applause to Anaheim City Councilmen Tom Daly, Irv Pickler and--much to everyone’s surprise--Bill Ehrle for having the guts to rescind a 4% utility tax and cut their own salaries by 30% (“Anaheim Council Voids Utility Tax, Cuts Own Salaries,” July 24).
It’s widely known that government can and should trim their plump budgets as suggested by small reductions here and there. Everyone else has had to tighten their belts, Mr. Mayor (Fred Hunter) and Councilman (Bob) Simpson!
Let’s hope Anaheim voters remember these two who would not envision effective cost-cutting measures that have swept other municipalities.
MARK PHEBUS, Anaheim
