Properly, I bought my Maui County price range replace within the mail at present. All very fascinating with some highlights.
Liquor budgeted at $three.four million. He did not know there have been so many drunks in public workplace. Water provide receives $100 million. Seems like rather a lot for a useful resource that comes from God, and I am unable to use it for the subsequent six months!
The biggest expense at $254.7 million was for “all through the county”, which we do not find out about, however you could be certain it is being spent someplace in Maui County.
The County Council has $10.1 million. This explains why so many individuals are working. It is the one place you will get an honest wage.
Highway enhancements for $28.2 million. Do we actually want to speak about potholes? I did not see any of that money for my wheel alignment job.
So now, lastly, what shouldn’t be within the price range, resembling well being. Has it escaped the mayor that there’s a well being disaster in Maui? Scarcity of docs, nurses and hospital beds, even with out the influence of COVID. To not point out the necessity for long-term look after the aged.
I hope that within the subsequent election we’ll see candidates with a plan to repair the long-term well being scarcity and that they are going to cough a little bit about my wheel alignment.
