Did you happen to see any information or posts or meetings or articles that mentioned an average increase between $85 - $125? What did you think that meant?

And before we start with the definition of "few dollars," everyone in the county who pays taxes contributes to the VPSD whether they are in the Villages or not. When you change that and only have those in the Villages pay then the cost per household goes up a little - about $85 - $125.

The information was presented dozens of times - some just chose to not hear it.
