1 thought on “City of Prescott Public Notice: Consideration of New City Court Docket Fee”
Two relevant questions:
1) What happened to the taxes that are supposed to pay for “….administrative costs associated with…”
2) Are the court operations free of non-value added work, waste, double effort and the like?
Answer these questions first, then start talking about new fees. And besides, when will the Town of Prescott announce that they’ve improved their processes so much that they’ll now eliminate some fee foisted in the past on the taxpaying public?
