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, your property value has declined by 50% from 2007-2010.(I checked the Collier Appraiser's website.) It's going to decline again this year, and probably again next year unless the City can get a handle on controlling expenses. Why do you keep supporting the City government? I didn't know a good whiff of crushed asbestos could cause people to exhibit such bizarre behavior.
