McIntyre letter: Sharon Ullman

Support Sharon Ullman. Ada County is not in dire straits, as has been eluded by a current commissioner. While Sharon was on the commission, departments weren’t allowed to have “internal savings” accounts. She challenged department budgets and required detailed justifications for increases. This was to keep tax dollars in your pockets, instead of growing government. Sharon was the only commissioner interested in the “financial” side of the county. No other commissioner has visited my office but her. I know the money that comes into the county, and so does Sharon. I support Sharon Ullman for District 3 commissioner.

Vicky McIntyre, Ada County treasurer
