Everyone's favorite Jack-of-all-Trades Warren Slocum will not seek re-election this year. In a County where one person leaving office sets off an entire chain reaction of political positioning, this is no different. Because unlike Lee Buffington's job, people actually want to be assessor-clerk-recorder... I mean, what are the chances that an assessor-clerk-recorder will lose $150 million overnight? Anyway, the jockeying has begun to replace Slocum: Supervisor Mark Church wants in (which will set off another landslide of political manuevering for his seat) according to the news story, but other familiar names popping up -- like Papan, Keighran, Hershman, Holober, Nagel, and Mullin..
Budget Woes Daily...
- San Mateo Community College District will most likely seek a Countywide parcel tax because of their crappy financial picture...
- San Mateo City workers must not like this budget headline today: Workers must make new sacrifice...
- San Bruno's property taxes, sales taxes, and all other local taxes are taking a hit -- and now they will cut, cut, cut...
- $9 million in cuts to the San Mateo Union High School District are needed... if only there was a piece of land to sell to help balance the budget...
- A parcel tax measure is underway for Menlo Park City Schools...
Millbrae officially announced that it was no fun... they will not allow marijuana dispensaries...
