TAKE A HAND IN MAKING SURE THAT
YOUR LOCAL FUNDS ARE BEING SPENT PROPERLY
AND NOT FOR LINING THE POCKETS OF A FEW FRIENDS
AND FAMILY MEMBERS OF YOUR LOCAL OFFICIALS.

It's your tax money. Shouldn't you care?

Go to your various local government offices;
mayor, local departments, etc., and ask to see their Public Records.

Contracts, paid-out invoices, grants, and of course,
a listing of all of your local officials along with their duties and responsibilities,
along with any other local projects or purchase records.
Ask for their Oath's of office.
Every public official MUST have one on file in the Auditor's office !
Any official being paid without one on file is being paid illegally !!!

Look at HUD Block Grant Development funds.
There are hundreds of thousands of dollars available to average homeowners.
These are GRANTS ! You don't pay them back. Low interest loans available, too. Go look.
( Or would you rather live with that leaky roof and old furnace? )

Don't let your officials come up with thousands and thousands of " surplus " or " excess " funds.
If they're doing what they should be doing, dozens of home should be being rehabilitated.
There shouldn't be any " surplus " or " excess " funds !!!
And NOT for just the same few people or the same contractor for every job,
especially if they're related to any of the city officials; i.e., building inspectors, etc..

Sick of doing without while a few get it all? You can put a stop to it.

Look through those Public Records. See how your money is being spent.

Do the spending amounts seem reasonable ?
Are the same projects being done over and over again ?
How many names do you see that you've seen related to each other in other ways ?
How many times do you see those same names in the Records ?

Keep an eye on your newspaper for information about how
your local officials are planning on spending your money.

Your local officials are supposed to take an oath to support
all of the laws and constitutions of our country and state,
not to ingnore them for their friends, family, and personal interests to prosper,
at the taxpayer's (YOUR) expense !
( By the way, there must be a copy of this oath on file with your Auditor as well !
If not . . .well, then they're being paid illegally !)

It's your tax money. Shouldn't you care?

Remember : If something smells fishy, there's a fish nearby !
