Cobb residents spoke loud and clear on
Tuesday, agreeing by a substantial 52.83 to 47.17 percent margin to extend the
current 1 percent SPLOST for another six years to fund county roads, parks and
public safety. The Marietta Daily
Journal
Despite the spin put on this vote by the
pro-tax MDJ, this was a close vote.
Lance Lamberton and the Cobb Taxpayer Association did a great job
campaigning against this 6 year SPLOST, but Project bribes to cities and
limited time and resources resulted in this 5% margin squeaker. This close vote
should be a wake-up call to Cobb.
Cobb voters should continue to press the
Cobb County Commission to address critical traffic mitigating and road widening
and maintenance priorities, while continuing to question lower priority items.
