Once upon a time there was a small city within a small county. Over the years they worked together fairly well, but a time came when there were some small disputes which grew out of control. Through an odd set of circumstances the county was forced to raise taxes significantly. These taxes fell largely on ag land. Many farmers decided to move much of their spending to neighboring towns thereby costing the small city many millions of dollars in lost business. Other organizations watched how the city government dealt with things and also decided to go elsewhere. The end result was the city suffered significantly while the county survived fairly well.(Any similarity to real people and places is purely coincidental.)Ron BoyengaKanaranzi Township
