Take a Good Look at County Issues

by increasing taxes.
Better yet, let's keep the coun-
~ offices in downtown buildings
until it IS assured that once
these office spaces are emptled
they will not be vacant long.
As for the court house, no
amount of funds can aid this
problem if county officials keep
neglecting what they already
have. There are many buildings
in the downtown area that are

Engineers Ruilding) yet they
are not in need Of such drastic
repairs.
Finally, there is no need for
any expansion of the County

parking lot for private planes

Yet. it does not take too long
to feel the pinch when a local
firm is suddenly forced to move
out of the area because of the
ever-increasing taxes.
We need to make Greater
Cleveland a more attractive area
for business and industry-not
keep piling more burdens on
them.
1t is this newspapers feeling
that nothing is to be gained by
approving the SO million bond

more than give a blank check
for county officials who haven't
cited any specific needs as far
as road repairing or building is
concerned.
Also, the funds asked for the
county administration building

should be given extra thought.
