Letter: No on T people are desperate
Submitted by paula on Sat, 10/27/2018 - 7:13pm
Desperation – a state of despair, typically one that results in rash or extreme behavior.
This must be the mental state of those opposed to Measure T. The fear mongering they are resorting too has reached an all-time low. They are claiming voting YES on Measure T will: Cost us hundreds of million in lost revenue, the loss of the entire VHR TOT, cancel the Recreation Center project, cause the fire department to respond less quickly, etc… These people apparently have no shame in their desperation to sway the local voters from forcing VHRs to operate in areas where they are zoned.
