Charter Government

[ytowner]

I favor a County Regional Government. It may seem like a liberal move, but in this area we have a bunch of idiotic politicians spending too much. Put some conservatives in there to get some fiscal policy back and lower taxes for the entire county.

As far as I am concerned, one county government, beats paying all the taxes to the local town goverments to waste. Share our resources!

The idea of a County Charter form of government has been bounced around for the past 10 to 15 years but aside from forming study committees and a lot of radio air time nothing has ever came from it. At least on one occasion it even made it to the ballot but was defeated. Now the plan will once again rear its head with a plan to put it on the ballot next year.

The question is would you favor a charter form of County government. So far only one county in Ohio has this form of county government.
