South fire District Chief Rob Ross announced that the 2017-2018 budget was approved by South Fire District residents, with 396 votes in favor and 327 opposed.I don't know what the population in that district is, but it is many thousands more than the 723 voters who bothered to come out and vote. This is a shame. So many, in fact everyone, in the district is effected by the budget, yet so many don't bother to come to the poll for the few minutes it takes to cast a ballot.
There are many voters in the district who think that, because they are tenants, this does not effect them. They are wrong. Taxes are a cost of doing business and are passed on to the consumer, in this case tenants, in the form of higher rents.
So, get off your goddam lazy asses, learn the issues and cast an informed ballot!
