Dyas - 'we have changed how we manage money'

Dyas promised, when elected, to update his suckers via a blog. That was a lie and his blog hasn't been touched in years. Instead, Dyas hired his own PR department on the taxpayer dime, and with a rapidly approaching election, is using that to sell his lying propaganda. Dyas claims he has solely engineered something never seen on earth before ... 'building a more disciplined, modern financial system that delivers better value for every tax dollar." The mayor was paid $126,497.29 when Dyas arrived. The instant he was elected that became $145,200.

"Kelowna has taken a different path. We now start by setting clear limits on tax increases, generally in the range of three to five percent. At the same time, we changed how we deliver major projects. Instead of waiting years to save every dollar before starting construction, we now plan projects based on what we can afford over time. We also make careful, responsible use of borrowing through the Municipal Finance Authority."

WTF is dopey Dyas saying? He's saying that his solution to his ever rising taxes is to borrow. "The reality is simple. Borrowing for municipalities is relatively low cost, and we have recognized that it is often far more affordable than waiting while prices rise." Dyas is a simpleton. Taxes under his watch have risen an average of 15% and the last budget of $1b+ is another new record. Unemployment in Kelowna is back up to 8% and housing costs remain stubbornly high. Dyas singing 'high growth' every fukkin day to justify his free spending is 'simply' no longer true in Kelowna. Property values have decreased across the board in Kelowna. At some point ever increasing property taxes will fail to raise more money.

"We build when funding capacity is in place and pay for projects as they are built, rather than all at once. This allows us to move faster and avoid the steep cost increases that come from inflation and delay.

Dopey Dyas MUST be writing this rubbish himself. His argument seems to be the faster he blows the money (by borrowing) the cheaper major capital projects are going to be. "We took what was effectively a trapped pool of capital in the Legacy Fund and reinvested it, so it now generates millions of dollars in annual growth. That growth helps fund the infrastructure our city needs today ..." Comparing beans with apples sums up Dopey Dyas taxpayer spending habits perfectly. "Spending more on infrastructure does not automatically mean taxing more." "Three groups spend other people's money: children, thieves, politicians. All three need supervision." -- Dick Armey, American economist and politician.

Khalistani asset Tom Dyas is out to lunch with his thievery and needs to go, along with his Khalistani partner in open crime Mohini Singh.
