[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are raising assessments AND the property tax rate. I don't understand where all the money goes. The county services our family would use are libraries--which are in complete disrepair and disgusting and unusable--and the ms afterschool program. Our kids play rec soccer and they don't even get to practice on a real field because our league says there is a field shortage. They play rec basketball and practice once a week in school gyms and those are closed half the time and practice is canceled. Other counties have much nicer amenities. Where does all the money go? [/quote] 70% of our taxes (from food, property, gas, plastic bags, etc) go to Richmond and south. There's relarively a small/disproportional amt for the northern counties despite the dense population (1.8 million people in Ffx Co...I'm guessing adjacent counties are also almost as highly populated).[/quote] +1[/quote]
