Last Chance to Be Heard on the Property Tax Increase

Monday, September 9, 2024 is your last opportunity to voice your opposition to the 12% property tax bill increase. That is when the  Plano City Council votes on the increase.  
Esther and Ruth have talked about the tax increase on our podcast. If you have not had a chance to listen yet, click on the podcast tab and listen to the last two episodes.
If you would like to speak at the meeting at 7:00 pm at Davis Library you must register before 4:00 pm on Monday at the following link https://forms.plano.gov/Forms/Sign_Up_Citizen . You can also register your opinion, but choose not to speak at that same link. You can look up how much the increase will cost you at mytaxdollar.plano.gov .
The Council can lower our tax rate 1 cent by cutting the $8.5 million they plan to add to the economic development fund by $6 million and still have $2.5 million to hand out to multi million dollar companies. The fund currently has over $43 million in it. Residents should not have to go broke just to stay in their homes, so millionaires and billionaires can get tax dollars they don’t need.
