Prop W: $9 Million Ask for a $5 Million Problem?
from The Ben Broghammer Show Hosted by Broghammer Media
Why is the district asking for $9 million in an attempt to address a $5 million problem? The district compares this tax increase to coffee runs, when in reality, it means an 18% tax increase, before next year’s reassessment, and an 18% cost of living increase for our community. In this episode, Ben continues to present the facts surrounding the Webster Groves School District budget and financial issues, what Prop W really is, and what it will likely mean for our community. The small business impact, the household impact, the tax increase we are getting asked to pay without being presented sustainable solutions to solving the problems that landed us here in the first place. Prop W is likely the start of more and more to come, pushing prosperity in our community further and further away. Break through the headlines, the fear tactics, the recycled talking points, and learn what it really is and how it will impact you. This is the Ben Broghammer Show. These are the facts.
