Mayor Alvin Brown's proposed budget cuts jobs, spending

[sheclown]

...and shrinking Municipal Code Compliance staff by nine employees.

well, we know that code has too much time on its hands

and the Jacksonville Journey is wasting money funding demolitions of historic homes.

Perhaps preservation just might be helped by less government spending.

A race to the bottom.

I'm with Alvin is about to be tested. Better hope its better than Peyton's tagline "and that $115 will save Jacksonville"....

In this case we're clearly getting what we voted for. Alvin is doing what the majority of taxpayers clearly wanted - balancing the budget without raising taxes. Hogan would have done the same thing, but in any even more haphazard and myopic fashion - at least if he followed what he said in his campaign.

Maybe we will find out in a few years after Alvin's regime...
