[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the ADU proposal risks producing is a MC with a large working class and lower middle class populations. The County is already driving away upper income residents. FACT is that a high percentage of income tax revenues, whether Federal, state or local, derive from upper income taxpayers. The numbers are simple. Top 50% of TPs pay over 95% of ALL income tax revenues, top 10% pay 70%, and top 1% pay over 37%. MC cant afford to drive away more upper income taxpayers, whether top 1% of even top 10%. And, finally, with the push to increase rates on upper income taxpayers (which I am not opposed), the County is only encouraging more to leave. DMV has plenty of nice places to live outside of MC.[/quote] I agree.[/quote]
