My folks are retired. Their incomes will not go up 32%. This will, in effect, tax retirees out of their homes.
Then, according to compassionate liberal politicians, die on the street with the added bonus of being guaranteed dim voters for years to come.
So if COVID doesn’t kill the retirees, the property taxes will?
Just damn.
“This will, in effect, tax retirees out of their homes”
Well, that depends on what the base tax now is that will be raised 32%.
If City Property Tax is a .15% of assessed value, most will never notice a 32% increase. Even if you told them in advance to look for it.
This mayor just wants to get his share before the state comes in to slaughter the pigs.
