Reminder: Mat-Su Borough Tax Hike Tuesday, 4/17/2018
Assembly Meeting Tuesday, 4/17/2018
Where: Assembly Chambers - 350 E. Dahlia Ave., Palmer
When: 6:00 PM
Testify: During public hearings - OR 18-014 Education Funding, OR 18-015
New Tax Cap
Neither the Borough nor the Assembly have done anything significant to cut spending, but insist on giving the School District more when correction is what is needed.
Some points to
consider:
The main purpose appears to be to grant the School District an
increase based on the value of property assessments now and in the
future, regardless of student enrollment
As property assessments increase, the local support for schools increases regardless of enrollment
Would this effort drive increases in assessments?
The calculation under the proposed change will give the School District another increase of 3.75% for FY 2019.
Mat-Su students are, on average, performing poorly as compared to the rest of the nation.
Why are we rewarding poor performance of the School District with additional money and expecting the situation to improve?
The old formula linked the student enrollment to the amount of money proportioned. The new formula does not.
New Formula
proposed:
FY 2019 Taxable Assessed Value: $9,269,669,000 *.00625 =
$57,935,431.25 a 3.75% increase from last FY 2018
Taxes, Taxes, Taxes!

The never ending Bad Joke in Juneau continues.....

Reading the very last part of this brings to question why the Natives Of Alaska are not up in arms over the Cultural Appropriation Day they have there? Just this year they have had fits over just this very thing throughout Alaska and several news worthy ones last year....

Repeal of SB91 with Public Testimony!
Even though we all know that what we say clearly is a repeat of every Town Hall they have had on the subject! Every public notice by our Lawmakers, Every News Outlet and Every other place that you can think of......
Unless you are in the Special Interests groups that are trying to keep this alive.... Why don’t We don’t here from you....? Could that be because, you have deep pockets in Juneau, keeping it in place...?
Politadick
One of these Special Interests Groups represents 35% of all Alaskans and half of the ones that would of been in jail, those laws are keeping out of jail....
Is this just a coincidence?
Politadick
Wow.....
I’m in the wrong line of work....
They make more in two months then someone working at McDonalds makes all year....
