12:15 p.m.: About that tax hike: I should have known this. The county's Home Rule Charter mandates that the preliminary budget be made public no later than the first Monday of November. So they couldn't have sat on it even if they wanted to. But they probably wouldn't necessarily have volunteered the information if we hadn't asked. They probably were not all that happy to learn that our ace courthouse reporter, Danielle Lynch, was on the story and ready to report it yesterday. Props to Danielle!
