Ulster County legislator Mike Madsen reflects on county executive Mike Hein's recent State of the County address, and is a little frustrated about not hearing more about forward progress.
But I'm a realist. It's not so much who was giving the speech as much as what the limited options are in 2010, and the task is huge. Hein and my fellow Legislators know that we need to provide life support to Ulster County in-spite of what the state throws at us in unfunded mandates, increasing health costs, anaemic sales tax revenue and unrelenting tax increases.
