Letters: It's no fair to complain when you're the problem

Rochester Taxpayers, are you "Flabbergasted" by your taxes? Mr. Robert Jaffin,

in a recent Letter to the editor in a different newspaper, is also "Flabbergasted," by "his" rising taxes, while his property loses its value.

Mr. Jaffin claims "the Rochester City Government is on an unsustainable and downward spiral, based on tax revenues they are trying to raise."

Additionally, he specifically credits the Mayor, the City Manger as well as the City Council for making it TOO expensive for him to live here.....

Hallelujah!

What is the significance of his letter? Mr. Jaffin failed to mention he is a

member of Strafford County Regional Planning Commission, a proponent of the

"Agenda 21" scheme.

This self-appointed group is determined to insure we are taxed and controlled

in every way, from their location in the Rochester Community Center. Yet, Mr.

Jaffin, in another letter to the editor, proposed demolishing that very building to construct a new "Taj Mahal" with multiple vehicle parking levels. SCRP obtains funding through state and federal grants, for programs our taxes "already" fund. They do nothing but squander our money on their grandiose world view, while city's and towns willingly abdicate control of your rights, to these unelected scoundrels.

This is a group who has no problem attempting to control our property rights,

tax rainwater, or provide "Broadband Internet Services", etc, while he and his

ilk thrive on power. Mr. Jaffin is a hypocrite for complaining over his own

taxes while he is personally adding ever to taxes and government control.

My bad, I forgot these mundane things, like taxes, are not supposed to apply to the

"elite."

Maybe Mr. Jaffin should look in the mirror when he wants to blame someone for

the city's higher taxes.

Citizens, demand Strafford County Regional Planning be evicted and disbanded.
