Where hell is everyone today?
Our fucking city. Wants to raise our property tax millage for road repair, new jail, a school sinking fund, and more. I'm sick to fucking death of being taxed up the ass. So, I'm making a proposal that either ONLY property owners vote on millage increases, or only those who vote YES get to pay.What hell is that.

You do realize renters indirectly pay for property tax increase?Our fucking city. Wants to raise our property tax millage for road repair, new jail, a school sinking fund, and more.

No no no no.. It's much deeper than that. Our elected officials are trying to turn Esky into Little Detroit by giving extreme tax incentives to developers for building low income housing. We've got an 18 story building that started out as elderly housing, but then they couldn't fill it so they included low income. now it's a drug infested 40 year old shit hole that has never generated 1 fucking cent of property taxes. I looked at their tax bills and assessed value today. It says ZERO. We also have about 7 other LARGE complexes that are designated low income that pay ZERO, and a few other small businesses that pay extremely low or NO taxes. But then when they need millage they call on us property owners to foot the fucking bills. They're attempting to put the private landlords out of business so they can control ALL the property. Landlords attempting to make renovations or add parking get refused. Owners trying to turn a 1 family unit into a two family unit are told they cannot change the zoning. When a few of us show up at council meetings we are never called upon for questions and never see the podium. I even have to threaten litigation to have a letter to the editor published. So now we are pouring on the coal. i have an insider that is giving me all the figures for the city finances. Come to find out, the sinking fund they are begging for and are telling us is depleted actually has $3.4M in it, and will receive another $1.04M from the state in 2018. They are lying to the public to get this shit passed. I could go for days about what I found out.You do realize renters indirectly pay for property tax increase?
