A lack of accountability by city leaders.

While the goal may be laudable, I disagree with these taxing authorities set by referendums. Every taxing authority should be set by one entity, City council/commission or whatever. If you have 3 extra taxing authorities and each one increases your taxes by 3%, each one can say: well we did not increase your taxes by 9%. It is a matter of accountability. I would prefer one taxing authority that is accountable.

The schools and other purposes should go to the one entity.
