EXPERIENCE ISLAND REPORTER • Week of Aug. 9-15, 2001 • 9 pinion Some spending by city justified If we are to believe the recent commentary submitted by the mayor, we would think that Sanibel's volunteer city council members are about to embark on a path of excess and overspending that will lead the city down the path to financial ruin. However, nothing could be further from the truth. What easier way to get reelected than to say, "Read my lips, no new taxes." Is that why Mayor Theiss is working so hard to stir up public opinion against any tax inciease? It can't be out of a concern about rising property taxes.
