Show a promise kept In action Monday the Grand county commission did what they have been saying they would do for the past year They cut the mill levy two mills the only cut to be made by any government unit in the the county A cut of two mills mill isn't monumental in comparison with the total levy In fact it will mean only a few dollars dollars dollars dol dol- lars to most taxpayers The important thing however is that the county determined a year ago that they were intending to cut the levy from between one t to two mills and they worked toward that goal There were no halfway half way promises They did not insert the loop-hole loop clause so 80 familiar unless we find a need that we do not now foresee It has been proven time and again that any government unit needs as much as it gets We commend the county commission for a diligent effort aimed at at beginning a n downward trend in the property tax mill levy |
