I question the intelligence of those people who are putting a levy on the ballot at this time. People are struggling to just make house payments, put gas in their car and winter heating bills are ahead. We also know that the values of our homes for taxes are going to increase. Yet, these community leaders want us to pay more taxes??? Good luck with that.
