Plus, Mr. Hine wants the city to buy the remaining 4.6 acres of the Fischer property for open space too, in order to block the construction of eight homes which, by coincidence, happen to be located in Ted's back yard. A better proposal than Mr. Hine's would be for the city to obtain the free three acres of open space from the Fischer property and buy another 7.6 acres for open space somewhere else. That's 10.6 acres for the price of 7.6. And better still would be if the city acquired all future open space from free donations and never spend another penny of taxpayer dollars purchasing open space. The Libertarian Party is the only party that opposes spending tax dollars on open space.
Voluntary donations are the only moral way for government to acquire open space.
Please vote Libertarian. I think the city should keep the three free acres of open space and give the taxpayers a break. Please vote against Ted Hine's self-interest proposal in the November election. Remember, Ruzzin was one of the architects last year of the so-called reform that authorized public funds for city campaigns. The electoral pork was touted as giving voice to candidates without financial backing.
