More candidates jump on board the transparency tran!

(That means that they’ve signed our Transparency Pledge, in case you were wondering.)

Our new signatories include members of the newly-formed Riverside Community Alliance, a slate of candidates running on a platform of fiscal responsibility, business development and, you guessed it, government transparency.

The RCA had a great profile in the Riverside/Brookfield Landmark newspaper last week.

Among the highlights in their platform:

  • Undertake a top-down budget analysis to identify cost savings – without service cuts
  • Hold the line on property taxes. The RCA slate does not foresee a need to increase property taxes, does not want to raise property taxes, and has no intention of doing so if the slate is elected
  • Put as much village information as possible online, with the goal of making it easy for residents to know and understand what their local government is doing and where their tax dollars go [including checkbooks].

Mike Gorman, the RCA candidate running for president of the board, is a Liberty Leader. Visit their blog to find out more.
