At last night’s Midtown Republican Club meeting, a candidate for property assessor and one for County Commission introduced themselves.
The slogan on his card reads “Fair Assessment in Times of Changing Values.” In other words, he realizes that home prices have dropped, but the property assessment doesn’t recognize that. It’s something he would like to change. Amen.
In his opinion a bonus is something earned by an employee for doing his job well, not just doing his job. That seems like an attitude our local and federal government have forgotten.
Both candidates will be on the March ballot, along with Amy Weirich’s position as District Attorney General and General Sessions Court Clerk. Republican Rick Rout is running for that position.
Of course, the presidential primary preference is on it, too.
