[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has Virginia ever given thought to breaking up Fairfax? Its massive in size and could easily be broken up into 5 separate jurisdictions.[/quote] Doing so would almost certainly mean [b]seperating higher income areas from lower income areas, [/b]resulting in some areas that now benefit from FFX's resources becoming stressed with the need to pay for services on a proportionately lower tax base. Its even more complicated because a lot of FFX's tax base is Tysons - why should the residents of the NE part of the County get all the benefit of that? Because of those issues the FFX BOS will not try to do that, and the General Assembly would be reluctant to approve it.[/quote] Have you seen the property tax bill increases this year? Yes, some of us are tired of paying more and more for handout. The school board trying to push changes that would harm middle class kids is going to be the last straw.[/quote]
