Tax dollars wasted

By Ed Plute

Hi:
As a candidate for Ketchikan city council ,I will vote to reverse the approved rate increases for the Ketchikan Ports and Harbors budgets 2013 and 2014 totaling 14%, with another 7% that is to be collected in 2015 for a total of 21% the already collected money should be return to the people who paid it. These rate increases should NEVER have been approved by the city council, the highest rate increases in the USA KPU borrowed millions dollars from Ports and Harbors funds, my question is WHY??? I have attached the original city documents that were sent to me under the US Federal Government, Freedom of Information Act.

As your read thru the enclosed information from the Director of Finance for the City of Ketchikan " Mr.Robert Newell " you can see how the current city council has wasted your tax dollars and plans to waste even more. Thank you very much for the support in this upcoming election.
