Sunset Hills’ capital needs read like someone’s Christmas wish list

To the editor:

I read the article concerning the five-year capital needs of Sunset Hills.

It reads like someone’s Christmas wish list. When you have a stream of unlimited tax funds, this list is easy to make.

I know people put in their time to make this list, but maybe the original premise is faulty. A better question would be: “What would the projects be if we don’t extend the sales tax?”

I shop in Sunset Hills. I pay the tax.

When this tax was passed, it had an ending date. Do the taxpayers ever get a break? No, we just get a longer list of wants. How about some budget cuts?

Let’s form a committee.
