I’ve learned that the folks at the top of our city and county governments are proposing to raise taxes again this year.
I propose that traffic officers be hired to enforce existing street codes. Not just to ticket speeders, but also all those people who are running red lights and stop signs. The money generated from those citations would more than cover the expenses of Salt Lake City’s flashy remodel and make travel through our city and county safer.
