Web poll
Tell us starting Wednesday at our web site, carrollcountycomet.com
Each week the Comet polls its readers on a different topic. Vote online at carrollcountycomet.com starting each Thursday, and then click the Comments link to send us an email voicing your opinion. The best responses will be printed the following week.

Would you be willing to mail your property tax payment

instead of making the payment in person to alleviate the

need to hire extra workers in the treasurer's office?

You bet! Anything to help! No, the county should hire enough people so I can pay my taxes in person. No, but I don't mind standing in line until I can get waited on.

Last Weeks results

Should council reduce the budget by $90,000 more to accommodate the courts' refusal to accept further appropriation

cuts?
32% Yes, the courts need to do what they do.
68% No, make the judges force the issue.
Total responses: 113

Reader's comments:

I feel if all the county reaped the benefits of the mistake, then the entire county needs to tighten the belt to make up the shortage. One other place to look is the libraries, like Camden; in my opinion, not used anywhere near its full potential.
