Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey examines every angle of the day's events in this 665th episode of 'The Political Spotlight.' Bilbrey dives into the public hearing of the Delaware County Commissioners that took place at 9 a.m. this morning (Monday, May 18, 2026). After several citizens voiced concerns, all opposing the county’s move to create a new tax, the Delaware County Commissioners voted 3-0 to take NO FURTHER ACTION on Ordinance 2026-8, which would establish a Cumulative Capital Development Fund Tax in Delaware County.

A WIN FOR THE PEOPLE, RIGHT!?

Well, that's just it... Honestly, Bilbrey is questioning just how easy it was to defeat this proposal.

What you’ll see in this episode:

  • A walkthrough of the events leading up to the vote and the 3-0 decision to “take no further action.”

  • Who spoke up, what concerns they raised, and how those concerns were addressed (or not).

  • What a Cumulative Capital Development Fund Tax is supposed to do, and what “no further action” means for the county’s budget and services.

  • The broader implications for taxpayers, local governance, and future political dynamics in Delaware County.

  • The questions to watch for moving forward, and how residents can stay engaged.
