(H/T – Mike)
Jim "Craps" Doyle (WEAC/Potawatomi-For Sale), as quoted by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel in July 2005 – ""˜The result of the freeze that I will sign will be that the average property tax on the average home will not go up at all next year, and will actually go down $5′ in December 2006."
Headline in today’s Waukesha Freeman – Waukesha eyes 2007 tax increase – Includes hikes in worker health payments; average homeowner pays $55 more in taxes next year
Did anybody expect any different out of either Doyle or Comrade Nelson? As Mike points out, that’s also a 5% levy increase in an era of 3% inflation. Dunno what the WCTC or Waukesha School Board is doing (that’s Mike’s and James’ department), but I highly doubt that the Craps Pledge will hold true out there in the Spring City.
Remember this when you go to the polls November 7.
