For those who want a reduced minimum, two points. First, everyone pays for services they do not use or use only sparingly. Those without children are paying for the schools. Those who do not drive are paying for road construction and maintenance. Those who are part-timers here are paying for garbage pickup in their primary city or town even though they are not using the services while here. These kinds of circumstances are inevitable in any society that seeks to have effective public services.
Second, lowering the service level would jeopardize Cando's (or any other contractor's) ability to run a successful business that has a reasonable income stream. This issue was worked out when the initial contract was put forward.
I am in favor of the current situation and support the county's intention to continue it.
