OMG! Local paper supportsanother democrat tax increase!!! And the poor are gonna get nailed. AGAIN!!!------Editorial: Muskegon voters should pass Hackley Library millage in spirit of public-private partnerships

If these two taxes are approved, the Muskegon city property taxes (along with the 5%er just imposed) will have a 50% INCREASE in one year.
How are businesses gonna react?
Editorial: Muskegon voters should pass Hackley Library millage in spirit of public-private partnerships | MLive.com:
"MUSKEGON, MI – As difficult as approving 4 mills for road construction in the city of Muskegon will be for voters, we hope that they find the more modest request to pay for a 15-year, $3.2 million bond issue to improve Hackley Public Library reasonable.
The Hackley Public Library building created through the philanthropy of Charles Hackley in the 1890s is a community treasurer that must be maintained for future generations of library patrons, historic preservation and continued downtown Muskegon redevelopment.
We offer our endorsement of Hackley Public Library bond issue on the Nov. 4 ballot.
For the owner of an average $52,000 house in the city of Muskegon, the annual property tax increase to cover the bond issue is slightly less than $14."
