Sundergill Rates County Board With A C On Finances
Former county leader Ron Sundergill says the current board earns a C, criticizing its use of bond anticipation notes to finance school construction and its handling of impact fees. He urges higher fees and opposes shifting debt onto taxpayers while noting prior board deficits. Bruce Reeder counters that notes are prudent and the county improved financially. Commissioners anticipate rating agency reviews as new policies aim to curb overcrowding.
