2. How would you implement your top priority?

Answer from Bob M. Drake:

By permitting taxpayers to make monthly property tax payments, the interest from those early payments can be returned to each individual home owner. The net effect is to lower each property owner's taxes. This is done WITHOUT COSTING THE COUNTY ANY REVENUE!

The answer must not exceed 50 words for the first question (Qualifications), and 75 words for the second (Top Priority). Direct references to opponents are not permitted.
