Writer demands transparency from county government
As a payer of town and county taxes, I was enraged to discover that my town supervisor voted โFORโ Local Law No. B-2026. Under this law, Livingston County supervisors can agree to sell or lease county-owned real property (i.e. real estate) WITHOUT public advertisement and WITHOUT competitive bidding.
I want transparency in my local government and I want to know that Livingston County is being financially responsible, i.e. by selling or leasing county property at the highest price, which is achieved through competitive bidding. If you agree in transparency and financial responsibility, let your town supervisor know AND consider signing a petition to force a public vote on this irresponsible (shady?) law.
