November 4th is just around the corner.
To better prepare myself and my fellow Wisconsinites (bleh
) for the upcoming election I have found the list of people running for the General Election for Wisconsin 2008.
Equally important is the list of referendums that may be on the 2008 Wisconsin ballot.
The one that worries me a bit is:
Shall the State of Wisconsin grant Milwaukee County the authority to provide property tax relief of at least $67,000,000 by levying a one percent (1%) county sales and use tax to be used to remove the following three items from the property tax levy; parks recreation culture, transit and emergency medical services (EMS)?
Raise $67 million for property tax relief by removing Parks, Transit and EMS levies.
Transit is bad enough in Milwaukee and the price is kind of steep. I love the parks and I think a lot can be done to keep them up.
Any-who, just some heads up on the ballots.
