A year ago the Grand Jury’s report on Oroville was titled “Oroville: a City in Turmoil.” Some language from the report: “unusually high level of dysfunction … disarray and confusion … distrust … accusations of collusion and unethical or illegal behavior were leveled against each other.”
Things have deteriorated since then. Now we have one ex-councilor facing charges of theft in the council chamber. Two others have filed suit against the people of Oroville. These things happened after we trusted them with a $4.5 million to $5 million tax increase. I would like to think enough voters would now support a referendum to repeal the tax increase.
