Citizens demand accountability as city neglects infrastructure
During a recent government meeting, community members expressed their frustration over deteriorating infrastructure and rising property taxes. Residents voiced concerns that the city is failing to maintain streets and alleys, leading to difficulties for drivers and potential damage to vehicles.

One speaker highlighted the unfairness of asking citizens to pay additional fees for repairs that should be the city's responsibility, emphasizing that taxpayers already contribute to municipal funding. The sentiment was echoed by others who indicated that many in the community are unwilling to support new financial initiatives due to a perceived lack of accountability and transparency within city management.

The discussion also touched on broader issues of corruption within the city, with residents calling for more effective governance and prioritization of essential services. The meeting underscored a growing discontent among citizens regarding local government operations and the need for immediate action to address infrastructure challenges.
