I wholeheartedly support County Legislator Tom Loughran’s effort, taking a cue from Kevin Gaughan, to reduce the size of the Erie County Legislature from 15 to 9.

In salary expenditures alone, that’s an extra $260k in the county’s pocket, and there’s no question that 9 people could lead and serve as effectively as 15.
