The CTA has done an analysis of the upcoming budget to suggest a few key areas that might lend themselves to further questions and analysis on the Capital and Operating Budgets. By asking these questions and turning down these requests for increased spending, we believe Council can bring in a zero tax increase.
CTA Calls for Zero Tax Increase for 2016
We are calling on Council to approve a zero tax increase budget for 2016.
In a letter addressed yesterday to the Mayor and members of Council, CTA President Lydia Smith asked that they show leadership by instructing staff to produce a 2016 Town budget resulting in no increase in the municipal portion of property taxes that citizens pay.
