It's a complete disaster in California, in every respect. The public schools, for example, went from being the best to competing with Mississippi for the worst.

School consolidation? Would that result in firing teachers and custodians?

At any time through popular referendum the municipality can vote to exceed the cap. If the spending is vital and reasonable why wouldn't residents vote for more taxes?

I just went to a lecture on New Jersey types of government that left me more confused than I came. I live in Monmouth County, home to several small shore towns (including where I live). I would love to see some of them share services (such as garbage pickup, beach cleaning, etc) to reduce costs. Also my town and the 2 south of me have school districts that consist of one building for K-8 students that are sent to regional high schools. I'd love to see the 3 towns combine their school districts to one and still keep the kids in the same school, but share administrative services. My local school graduates between 25-30 eighth graders every year.
