[Mpls] Mpls Property Taxes

[Craig Miller]

List;   To those who debate a voter approval for any tax increases.  The DFL'ers will never grant you that authority.  Try put it on the charter change committee's schedule.  You'll get faced. This is similar to asking the State wide DFL for  Initiative and Referendum.  Not going to happen if the Left of Center party has anything to say about it.  The Council is raising our taxes this year by a large amount.  They can do this because the next election is just about 3 years away.  By the time the election occurs you will forget what happened.  It's a tried and true method. Your memory is too short. I would quit grousing about it.  The sooner we take are forget pills and get on with blaming the legislature the better off we will be.   Craig Miller Former Fultonite [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2002 7:39 AM Subject: [Mpls] Re: Property taxes. Should there be a requirement for referendums for any property tax increases that exceed the rate of inflation which I believe was 2.2% for this year? (http://www.bls.gov/cpi/home.htm#data) Neal E.
