TO MARCO EAGLE: YOU HAVE THE FIGURES IN YOUR OWN ARTICLE, BUT FAILED ON YOUR MATH. You stated that last years Mileage Rate was 1.89 and this years was 2.0733. That is NOT $.75 higher, as you state in your article. Rather, it is $.1833 per $1,000 of assessed value higher. And, since many homes have been appraised at lower values, some citizens of Marco may, in fact, see a reduction in City and County taxes.
That has been what has caused such a major task to the Planners.
That is not to say that additional reductions should and could be achieved. Rather, please just get the facts correct. Ed Issler
