[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's hard for me to understand why this form has become so political.  Previous posters have made good points about why everyone should complete the form, but it's hard to convince those who have drank the MAGA kool-aid.

Also, it's not to make up for lost revenue from personal property or income tax.  Here's a description:

Impact Aid is a Federal education program that reimburses school districts for the lost revenue and additional costs associated with the presence of nontaxable Federal property. Because most public school districts are funded largely through local taxes and fees, and because Federal land is exempt from taxation, as are many of the businesses and facilities located on that land, districts containing Federal property are at a financial disadvantage in funding their schools.[/quote]

Based on the above explanation, then where anyone works is irrelevant.

FCPS can certainly figure out where federal property is within its borders without thousands of parents filling out a form. [/quote]
