Notable Quotes (2)

I'm going to vote no on this because I think we can do better... I'm pushing for a 5% target number. I think that's reasonable given inflation.

Mr. Parkill
Tax LevyDuring discussion on the 2026 preliminary property tax levy.

This is a pretty darn good number to start with... between now and the final budget, we can certainly maybe find places where we can go lower.

Mr. Pleish
Tax LevyCommenting on the 7.5% preliminary tax levy increase.
