Albemarle County is facing significant budget shortfalls due to the downturn in real estate
One of the biggest fallouts of Albemarle County's economic woes could be the school system. Many albemarle residents showed up Wednesday night to express their concerns to the Board of Supervisors. Although noone wants to see education be short changed, many are wondering if the county could make other cuts instead of going after the schools. I ran across a radio show the other day that was interviewing members of Albemarle's Truth in Tax Alliance www.albemarletruthintaxation.org. I found the men very reasonable in their views and gave the county credit where credit was due while shining lights on areas where the county could cutback without having to raise taxes.
