Questionnaire: Frank Recker's answers to Eagle questions

Would you support continued defense in court of the city’s waterways ordinance, which was declared unconstitutional by a district judge in November? No

Do you support the possible doubling of Florida homestead exemptions? Yes

Would you support, under any circumstances, a toll on the Jolley Bridge? No

Do you believe city spending over the last two years has been reasonable? Yes

Would you support a special assessment for fire services? Yes, provided it is offset by a tax reduction.
