This is a reprint of an article I wrote earlier this summer. I have received several emails from citizens of Southaven asking my opinion on extending the "pennies for parks" tax. This tax is due to repeal this year, and I oppose extending this tax without the consent of the people of Southaven. When this tax was implemented the people voted for it with a repeal date, it is my belief that the tax should repeal, just as the people voted for it to do. If the leadership of Southaven want this tax to continue they should ask the citizens of their city through a vote.
