Hold the line on taxes, search for efficiencies, and fund the basics — roads and trash collection. Any additional funds should be used for economic redevelopment in eastern Shawnee.

It is hard balancing the needs of Shawnee citizens and working toward continued growth of our wonderful community. We appreciate all your considerations!

Council Members: The proposed budget appears to be ambitious and reasonable — go for it!
Margery Beardslee ( in Shawnee) says...
A step in the right direction is not to increase property taxes. The public is bombarded with increases in everything — i.e. food, utilities, taxes are all items that have increased during this economic depression we are going through.
Tim Dykes ( in Shawnee) says...
Street repairs shouldn’t be the top priority. I worked in Kansas City, Mo., and know how to quickly maneuver around a pothole. The city of Shawnee should focus on enticing industry and larger corporations by providing adequate land space and tax incentives.
