Please vote NO on June 18.
A majority on the Windsor Town Council, in their infinite wisdom, have decided to ignore the will of the people who voted down the proposed budget on May 14. Those Council members did NOT reduce spending but instead are resubmitting the same budget for a second vote hoping that this time it will pass.
Property values have increased due to the recent revaluation. Some have increased dramatically which means that property taxes will increase proportionately. Your property taxes!
Many people are already having a difficult time making ends meet. Food, gas, and utility prices, to name a few, have increased substantially. Electric rates are also due to increase again this summer. More people are seeking help from food banks to feed their families and now, for many, property taxes will also increase dramatically.
For those who can afford the higher cost of living, I ask that you think of those whose cannot and vote to help reduce their property tax increase during these difficult economic times.
We need to send a message to the Windsor Town Council. We need to tell them to reduce the tax burden on Windsor families that has resulted from increased property values due to revaluation and increased town spending. How? By voting no on the upcoming budget referendum.
Please get out and vote and please vote NO on June 18.
