Why hasn't Brian Donahue kept his promise? 1997 - Donahue supported the Stanton parcel tax. Stanton Residents defeated it! 2001 - Donahue supported the Stanton utility tax. 2010 - Donahue voted for an increase in Stanton's trash franchise fee without the vote of the people. 2017 - In Stanton there is also a cable TV franchise fee, SoCal Edison franchise fee, lighting and landscaping fee, protective service fee...
