Taxes, property tax discussions, public spending, and local government budgets can all have a direct impact on contractors, businesses, infrastructure, and the future of San Diego’s construction economy.
In this episode, host Shandon Harbour talks with Mark Kersey, President & CEO of the San Diego County Taxpayers Association and former San Diego City Councilmember, about taxpayer accountability, government spending, local budgets, and why contractors should pay attention to public policy.
Mark shares how the Taxpayers Association reviews tax measures, bond measures, and city and county budgets through a nonpartisan, pro-taxpayer lens. He also explains why transparency, efficiency, and a careful look at how taxpayer dollars are spent matter for businesses, communities, and public infrastructure.
