Response

SHOW UP AND SPEAK UP: This is the official public hearing on your tax bill. Attend the meeting and ask the board directly: ‘Are you proposing a tax rate higher than the no-new-revenue rate? If so, by how much will the average homeowner’s tax bill increase?’ Demand clear answers before they schedule the final vote.

💰 Impact: Potential tax levy increase; details to be revealed at the hearing.
