Property tax Levy's have already increased city wide by 181% since 2003. The Albert Lea City Council has to look for government waste and cut it... My example stated in this article points a finger at just one example of waste, that being law enforcement, police employees. Thank you 
2009 & 2010 Local Government Aid (LGA) cuts in Albert Lea. Big Bucks!!! Check it Out!!!

Can we get that cash back? Great Example of Waste!!  Population decline and vacancy after vacancy on Broadway and downtown area...  No refunds!!
No wait just a minute!
We put up them ugly looking things to draw people to downtown AL at night, it is worth the money spent!
