Brannon Flyer Angers Kennedy
At the candidates' forum, some noticed Councilman Mike Kennedy jawing with challenger Jim Brannon somewhat intensely (heatedly?). Seems Kennedy had gotten ahold of a flyer that was being circulated by supporters of "Jim Brannon for Coeur d'Alene City Council." Using bold face headlines and underlines, the one-page flyer opens with the question: Do you want your property taxes to remain in your pocket or do you want your taxes granted to certain wealthy developers? Then, the flyer answers the question this way: "Vote for Jim Brannon to keep hard earned income in your pocket and not in the pockets of wealthy developers. Jim Brannon's opponent is employed by an extremely wealthy developer and only certain wealthy developers are granted free tax money from the Lake City Development Coporation (LCDC), City of Coeur d'Alene's Urban Renewal Agency." You can see the document for yourself here.
Question: What do you make of this flyer? (BTW, if Mike Kennedy or Jim Brannon is blurking, can either of you explain what was said during your private conversation at the forum?
