It would all come down to what they want to cut. Everyone has a different idea of what's important.

I would prefer they cut services. I pay plenty in taxes right now.

Raise taxes. At the same time though, they should always be looking for ways to be more efficient.

I would actually have them raise taxes believe it or not.  I think services are bad enough as it is.

I wouldn't raise taxes at this point. We're paying enough at the moment.

Cut services, we pay enough in taxes. Cut them all. Let everybody get some pain.

That's a really tough question. It all depends on what they want to cut.

Cut services. You've got to make due with what you've got. The town can't ask for more money when they could just cut things back in order to save money.
