Letter to the Editor: Suzanne Brown Criticizes Mayor's Fiscal Conservatism
As election season is in full swing, Mayor Kim Learnard's claim of being a fiscal conservative has been disputed by city! council member Suzanne Brown.
Brown argues that the Mayor's recent ad is "a lot more fiction than fact" and that her actions do not align with fiscal conservatism.
- Donations to Act Blue, the Democratic Party's online fundraising platform, have been made to support non-conservative candidates such as Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Stacey Abrams.
- The FY 2025 millage rate reduction of 0.06 was not a full rollback, but rather a minimal reduction that still resulted in a tax increase.
Her desperation to convince the voters that she is somehow a “fiscal conservative” falls short on every count.
Author's summary: Mayor Kim Learnard's fiscal conservatism is disputed by council member Suzanne Brown.
