Making for a packed court room and fresh from a meeting the week before, carrying number and note laden pages, several voices spoke to the Court in questioning the huge Budget, Indigent Health Care amounts, trimming of budget by at least .5%, and lowering the tax rate another 10%. This comes after a 300 to 500 % increase in taxes.
