I found that I could turn them off in my profile under e-mail settings. However, it appears thatRead More this is now an all or nothing rather than by selected posts or individual articles.

Hi Steve, The comment stream doesn't appear on the homepage in the new design. Some of the sitesRead More that went 2.0 before mine did heard complaints about that. I don't know if it will be changed or not. Right now Patch is gathering all feedback.

Perhaps a unique ID sent out yearly with you tax bill or something like that? Or I think what mightRead More be better is rather than crossing off names manually on a sheet of paper when you go to vote, they should use a computer system. This would allow you to travel to the closest polling place (Not across town as is the case with me.)

They don't ask you for ID to fill out an absentee! No difference, IMO.

That's why I stated, "two MAIN groups of VOTERS": 1. Parent's who always vote YES - theyRead More want as much $$$ for education as possible. 2. People who always vote NO, regardless of budget - they don't want to pay more in taxes. These groups have an obvious reason to vote. After that, it starts to get fragmented. I really haven't seen much literature from the "Parents who don't want more taxes" group.

@John, never said we should freeze spending till everyone can afford it, no need to be a dramaRead More queen. And it is none of your business what I have done for others. But what I have not done, is belittle those that can't afford a tax increase and pretend I am better than them.

No one's expecting anything different! Monroe benefits from wealthier resident, not poorer ones!Read More That's the hard and rash truth. I'm not saying it's right or honest! It's to the town's benefit to price people out of their homes as disgusting as that may sound.

Being unemployed is also finite, that's why it's a good idea to create a 12 month householdRead More emergency fund. No one forces someone to purchase a home without this emergency fund.

I'll vote yes when its at a 3.5% mill rate increase. That's a decent tax increase in this economy.Read More It's tough working $20-$40 increases per month into your personal budget each year on top of everything else that increases in price.
Fed Up April 21, 2013 at 09:11 pm
No more tax increases. Read our lips.
michael massao April 20, 2013 at 02:47 pm
The budget is a fair one, and the quality of our schools and town services depend upon it. There isRead More never a good time for a mill rate increase, but it is well worth the investment in our home values, community, and kid's education. Please vote Yes on Tuesday.
