TOP TEN--- NOT ON THE MAYOR'S LIST

1) Billboards-- Non property tax paying billboards, no yearly inspections or safety fees, no excise tax

Institute a building fee that is a % of the total cost of the billboard just like with residential building permits.  

2) Raise Impact Fees--What Impact does each new development project have on the enviroment?

3) Merge the Kansas City Election Board with the Jackson County Election Board--

4) Transfer the Stadium Welfare, to the Arts Hogs --time to pass the 2 Million around.

5)  Put Cordish on a short leash - Quit accepting their excuses and whinning

6) Egalatarian dispersal of any ART & Cultural Tax Racially and Culturally

7)Tax Increment Financing -New taxes must be TIF EXEMPT ---especially Light Rail.  

If they are not TIF exempt, simply VOTE NO

8) Raise the water and sewage treatment rates to wholesale and commercial accounts. Require that they pay their fair share. Especially Johnson County.

9)Institute a national assessor system like Iowas Collect on ALL of the assets a business trys to hide.

10) Quit the Police Automobile Loan System to off duty police, particularly for use at some off duty job.
No more "off duty" dog patrol cars running on taxpayer gas.
