Probably, Laconia passed a tax cap for some of the same reasons that Wolfeboro, Alton & Gilford passed SB-2. As a city and not a town, SB-2 is not an option for Laconia. It looks like SB-2 may be spreading and moving around the lake to Meredith and Moultonboro.

For a town with no school system,, no school administration unit, no town hall, no town roads, no library, no police dept, no fire dept, no community center, no public works dept, no budget, and no people; suggest you move to the very large and not too far away NH town of Livermore, and live happily ever after...........lol.

Here's a letter to the editor in today's February 27, 2008, Laconia Daily Sun, from Meredith.
.........

SB-2 would allow people to vote their wallets. And that's bad?

To the editor:

Its time to take back Meredith, not to an earlier time, but from the special interest and the tax and spenders. Many of the taxpayers of Meredith - both natives and others - who have migrated here from the south seeking lower taxes and freedom are profoundly disappointed in the tax and spenders who have taken over the town and school system. It's time to rise up and empower the people and pass SB-2.

The founders of this great republic would be ecstatic that more voters would be participating in the voting in any form of government. The people in control ignore the falling property values, bad economy, high cost of fuels and other goods. Not everyone has unlimited income. The town of Meredith is used as an example of out of control spending by people from other towns.

One selectman made the statement that with SB-2, people would vote their wallets - not a good thing, well, ya!

If all you can afford is a Ford you don't buy a Lincoln. What's next, maybe an olympic swimming pool for the Inter-Lakes High School county club or the community center? People of Meredith and Meredith Center, rise up like our forefathers did with the British and take back Meredith. We can always go back to town meeting where 10-percent run the town. Hats off to Ms. Worsman and Mr. Lovett on the Selectboard but they need help. Elect Jim Waldron to the Selectboard.
