Estep should consult Corbin mayor before writing about tax situation

Date:

To the Editor:

I am puzzled by Don Estep’s editorial this week which inferred that Corbin’s current leaders failed to take advantage of an opportunity to work out an agreement with Knox County and share some of the $1 million dollars that comes out of the businesses and workers in Corbin Knox County and goes in total to the Knox County Fiscal Court and Barbourville.

We are aware and the record speaks for itself that Robert Stivers had last hour amendments added on bills the last three sessions of the legislature that stopped Corbin’s lawsuit from progressing in court. I would have hoped before Don published this information in his editorial he would have talked to Mayor Willard McBurney and others to get to the truth.

You will not get the truth from Robert Stivers.
