Community Pulse: Would you support a school facilities bond and a parcel property tax?

Apr 4, 2008





THIS WEEK'S WEB POLL:

Would you support a school facilities bond AND a

parcel property tax to fund school programs on the November ballot?


Yes: 4
No: 7


■ Yes. But I would need more details on the parcel tax and what specifically the bond would fund.  

■ Yes, if we raise developer fees or use taxes from gasoline sales for school funding at the same time.

■ No. Been there done that.

■ NO NO NO! Sorry but NO!

■ No to the property tax for school programs. However, I would strongly support state reforms to return local control to school districts. Then, and only then, would I support local property tax assessments!
