Tax Rate: This information shows your tax rate is .02 cheaper this year that it was in 2003, and many years less than that.
How can they say, “Increased your village property taxes year after year?” They misled you.
In their most recent mailer, candidate’s state:
-They are considering a 50% property tax increase as an option. FALSE
50% tax increase: Per Wisconsin State Statutes, taxes cannot go up 50% without a referendum. Again, they misled you.
VOTE for honest upstanding officials like John Jeffords, Rock Brandner and Sandy Voss.
