He should also address ending the insane property taxes.
Outside of my mortgage, property tax is my highest monthly expenditure. And it will never be paid off! WI is 35th in median income, but 8th in taxes. And it went up another $1600 this year. To pay for 65 million in repairs at the high school. Little population and a massive bill. We tried for years to vote no, but this last spring it was forced upon us. Choose the 65 million or the 300 million for a new school. Total joke.
Does your state not allow no tax increase bond issues for schools? Usually, there is no reason for a school to request a tax increase for capital expenditures. They all have debt servicing budgets, a portion of their funding that pays bond debt each year. It's like them taking out a mortgage to build new schools and make repairs.
I don’t believe so. This is interesting. I will have to research this. I seriously doubt we do. A nice high school doesn’t garnish a good education.
