The First Reason the Louisville Courier-Journal Offers for Not Voting for Hal Heiner for Mayor


Link to October 27 Louisville Courier-Journal editorial endorsement, "Greg Fischer for Mayor".

Excerpt:   Moreover, there are troubling aspects of Mr. Heiner's record. He led the fight that defeated the 2007 library tax referendum, for example, which would have paid for expansion and renovation of the city's libraries with a trifling increase of two-tenths of 1 percentage point in the city's occupation tax. His view that improvements could be made without the tax has not been supported by subsequent events.
