[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a developer. Anyone know which nature center we are talking about here? [/quote] As far as I am aware there are only 3 options: Huntley Meadows, Hidden Pond, and Hidden Oaks. There are also some historic sites that may be on the chopping block to close. Where is this budget shortfall coming from is my question. Voters always seem to approve the parks bonds, and our real estate taxes have only gone up. We’re not in some kind of massive, 2009-style recession where tax revenues are plummeting. What’s going on? [/quote] I thought Fairfax County was in a uniquely weird situation in northern Virginia where the amount of tax income we get from commercial real estate is a prime driver of our county budget but we don't get as much as Arlington or something strange like that? The budget town halls the supervisors have always explain it and I'm garbling what I remember.[/quote]
