Steve Wilensky and his bunch of ne'r do wells are still continuing their campaign to repay the certain hand-picked non-profits that campaigned for him all these years. CORRUPTION???
This appears to be a deal he made in back rooms and simply reeks of corruption! The voters turned down a raise in the Transient Occupancy Tax the last time because friends and relatives of residents come to stay in the local hotels and motels, b & b's and inns throughout the county.
Raising the TOT hurts everyone. To raise the TOT for friends of Wilensky is a sick, sad and desperate attempt to get those people who support certain non-profits to vote for it.
That way they never have to work to fundraise or earn any money ever again. There are hundreds of other non-profits that are being ignored, and are much more deserving than Wilensky's campaigners.
If they get this on the ballot, we need to VOTE NO!
NO MORE CORRUPTION in CALAVERAS COUNTY!!!

Where does Edson or Tofanelli stand on this tax increase?
Edson has sold out to Wilesnky and that corrupt bunch
If ANYONE knows both sides of this issue it's CLiff Edson as he has read all of the articles outlining the reason for opposing a T.O.T. increase as well as discussed the issue personally with Bill, the owner of the Robin's Nest B&B who has been spearheading the opposition. Yet Cliff has decided to continue his one-sided support and continues to suggest that Bill is the ONLY person against it. I guess Cliff believes that getting elected by keeping CBC (and now CVB as well) behind him is more important than being fair and balanced by representing ALL sides. And if that's the way he campaigns then that's the way he will legislate.
Can't vote for edson now. i thought he was a fiscal conservative.
Edson is only a fiscal conservative when it suits him. When he supports the position that "it's o.k. to raise taxes when YOU don't have to pay it" he's fully aware that this Increase T.O.T. drive is happening ALL OVER CALIFORNIA. In essence this is a tax on ANYONE & EVERYONE travelling in California, including Californians. In fact, MOST of the visitors to Calaveras that we call TOURISTS with such contempt ARE Californians.
Come on everyone shout...8 more years, 8 more years, 8 more years of Wilensky. 8 more years of no jobs, scandal, corruption and conning his constituents. Excuse me while i barf...
