I do have a problem with the organizers lying about no new taxes would be needed just because they know if they told the truth about it the incorporation would not stand a chance.
And I'm glad an independent accounting firm has made an analysis and at least started the public debate about that issue.
According to this "independent" study, paid for by groups who oppose SG, the city of SG Would have a 9 million dollar deficit, but ONLY IF they continue to fund 100% of the parish constitutional offices to the tune of 17+ million per year.
So according to this study, if SG pays for 30% or so of these offices, a fair share, they would still run a budget surplus. And that is assuming all of the other crazy assumptions they made in that study are correct.
Why do you refuse to acknowledge this?
