A Different Slant 168: Protect and Honor

Has host John Flavin gone off his rocker?  Suggesting a Sausalito ordinance that requires all adult citizens pack a gun?  Maybe he’s crazy like a fox…listen to his logic.

Also when do the Four Horsemen on the Sausalito City Council finally recognize who was the real force behind a win-win outcome for the most recent Housing Element?  It would be painful for them but they really need to do so.  Hear why.

A Different Slant 166: The Proposed Increase to the Sausalito Sales Tax Rate

Host John Flavin reviews the proposed sales tax increase including the City’s rationale and some concerns he has about the increase.  If the rationale for the tax hike is to fund capital improvements, why are four City Council members refusing to earmark the revenue from the tax increase to capital improvements?  He urges both his listeners to tell the City Clerk they don’t like this increase and they would certainly never vote for it unless the revenues are dedicated to capital improvements.

A Different Slant 165: Why The High Cost Survey?

Host John Flavin suspects that the recent Sausalito voter survey involving two consulting groups is nothing more than a high-priced puff piece to help support the passage in November of the ballot for the proposed one-half cent sales tax increase and the re-election of incumbent(s).  His suspicion is partially based on the refusal of City officials to release the questions asked in the survey.  Listen to his other reasons.
