Open Letter to the City Council

I have sent the following proposal to every member of the city council. I will publish their response.

If you support the proposal please contact your councilor and let them know.

I propose a "quarter cent tax for our kids".

The proceeds will fund

  • after and out of school programs,
  • mental health programs,
  • the protection of students in schools,
  • and basically, all of the interventions that we should be providing, but are not.

The administration of the proceeds must be a model of transparent accountability for every cent that is raised and spent, perhaps by means of internet access
to "the books".
