Fluvanna, over the next five to seven years, must cut all excess from general spending in every one of the many departments while trying not to hurt our teachers, lower costs, pay off debt and reduce business tax rates to have any chance of attracting any business. The schools have to offer administrative cost savings anywhere they can. We need to be lean and focused to handle our $100 million debt with its $8 million debt service fixed cost. I think we have paid almost no principal since 2008 because our debt is still $100 million in 2013. We simply cannot afford the additional $22 million debt, with another $1 million a year cost. The water nuts on the Board of Supervisors are trying to jam this thing down our over-taxed throats.
If Shaun, Joe and Mozell are so sure it is the right choice, put the pig to referendum. Do they trust their voters? If not, who do they represent?? The constitution of Virginia demands a referendum by law. Constitution of Virginia: Article 7 Section 10.
