With Portage Township Trustee Joyce Webster suggesting that it's time for Change ... and lots of other sitting trustees saying the exact opposite. Senator Landske from Lake County has even pushed a modification to allow Lake County once again to be exempted if this bill passes. This one has me floored since she's the GOP District board member and is going against Governor Daniels' stated intentions to change the way we do government in Indiana.
Democrats so far seem to be on the sidelines, watching Republicans fight over changes to government structure, which for the most part would in Porter County at least would eliminate 10 Republican trustees and give the responsibility for poor relief and fire protection over time to Democrat controlled county building.
Remember Auditor, Commissioners, Treasurer, Assessor, and Council are all Democrat controlled now, and they're pretty swamped working on 2007 taxes, payable 2008, and not quite billed yet.
