Utah cities stay afloat financially

Disappointed | 6:52 a.m. Nov. 23, 2008

Riverton City would be wize not to increase any publick funds this year after a 300% property tax increase. Let's have responsible leadership or kick them out.

Someone tell southwestern Utah that this is a fiscally conservative state. Cedar City just approved a multi million dollar lavish rec center with lazy river and day care center, and the multi-billion dollar Lake Powell Pipeline debt is supposed to be paid by the residents on Iron, Washington and Kane counties, so planned debt in these three counties will be massive.

Disappointed would be wise to use spell-check (sorry--'wise' and 'public' are spelled wrong).

I agree with James. This is the type of article that I would like to see more of. Sadly, we won't because they aren't ultimately that interesting to the public and don't spark paranoid, idiotic comments.

I would like to congragulate the writers and editors on a very well written and informative article that succinctly captures fairly complex material into something the average person can understand. Obviously this took a fair amount of time and effort. Thank you.
