Port Hueneme ‘View Tax’

Re “State Court Refuses to Hear ‘View Tax’ Case,” Feb. 6.

Three cheers for Dorothy Blake, who valiantly fought and won against City Hall. Those of us who live at the beach owe her a tremendous debt of gratitude.

This issue is but another one of City Manager Dick Velthoen’s legacies to the citizens of Port Hueneme. Mr. Velthoen should be held accountable for the millions of our tax dollars that he has so carelessly wasted. His “brilliant” ideas have turned our city’s finances into nightmares.

We should not only question the judgment of this city manager, we should also question the judgment of our City Council that continues to support him.
