Bankruptcy must be the last resort for council tax collection
Local authorities should do all they can to ensure that bankruptcy is only used as a last resort when it comes to council tax collection.
Perhaps this unidentified council member is not responsible for this, but I would like to remind George that a former council spent a $10 million reserve in one year and their only solution to prevent Hemet from filing bankruptcy was to ask the people to tax themselves 5 percent on all of their utilities.
