I’m hoping that people like you are in the minority, and that common sense will prevail in the future, when the taxpayers vote those responsible for the tax increase out of office.
Did not get hit with 25%, only 12 and had 15 years of no increases. Taxes are still lower than a majority of places. When you vote them out you will still have the same issue, not enough money to run the county. If you raise the fee on the developer you raise the fee on all builders. I am sure the small builders will love that.
