Breaking news from the Eye: The class action lawyers have filed an appeal regarding the All for Transportation (AFT) transit tax.
Judge Barbas Final ruling on July 9th that enabled an appeal to go forward.
As we reported earlier, yesterday four county commissioners voted to have an ordinance drafted to reinstate AFT's spending mandates and constraints.
Now that an appeal has been made, will they continue to move forward with such ordinance.
Stay tuned as we learn more.
So many problems with this ammendment, nothing can be done to make it lawful or follow the intent of it, only thing that can be done is scrap it and figure out a way to refund the people their money.
ReplyDeleteThe appeal is certainly no surprise. Common sense dictated action. The terrible thing is that they are collecting the 1% since January and it looks like there will be no way to refund that money if the tax is shot down. As they mess around with illegal taxes we all suffer with an inadequate and failing road transportation network!!!
