As #yqrcc prelim budget discussions get people talking, remember that the budget is where you see what the city really values and prioritizes. And as always, you can't have stable service with low taxes and low density. Needs over wants and be honest!
Venn Diagram. I want stable services and low taxes = need more density. I want stable services and low density = high taxes. I want low density and low taxes = service cuts. Stable services with low taxes and low density does NOT exist.

Hmmmm, maybe council needs a refresher on this? #yqrcc
Venn diagram. If you want stable services and low taxes, you need more density. If you want low taxes and low density, that means service cuts. If you want stable services and low density, you need high taxes. You can not have stable services, low taxes and low density together.

And as ever, this should be sent to every single one of our councilors. #yqrcc
Vent diagram. Stable services + low taxes=more density. Low taxes+low density=service cuts. Stable services+low density = high taxes. You can not have stable services, low density and low taxes.

My biggest gripe with city politicians is too many of them do not understand this. #yqrcc
Venn diagram. Stable services + low taxes requires more density. Stable services and low density requires high taxes. Low density and low taxes requires service cuts. Stable services, low density and low taxes is a combination that does not exist.

Every single member of council and every single person who speaks at council needs to be asked if they understand this graphic! #yqrcc
Venn diagram. If you want stable services and low taxes, you need more density. If you want stable services and low density, you pay high taxes. If you want low density and low taxes, you get service cuts. You can NOT have stable services, low density and low taxes!

And your regular reminder about city spending. #yqrcc
Venn diagram: stable services + low taxes + low density do not all exist together. Stable Services + low taxes needs more density. Low density+lowtaxes=service cuts. Stable services + Low density=high taxes.
