1. How would you implement your top priority?

Answer from Dusty Rhodes:

Although the county is reportedly facing a budget crunch, excessive spending continues almost unabated. There is dreadful inconsistency in asking departments for 15% cuts in basic services while buying additional buildings, hiring new $100,000-a-year assistant administrators, and giving cash to various downtown events. As the county's bill payer, I will keep publicly questioning county spending.
