Increased Taxes Due To Glasgow Bond

Dear Editor,

We were told that if you have a $200,000 home your taxes would be $5 to $10 per week. In November your taxes would go up $250 to $500.

If we look at the businesses in our school district, their taxes will go up. Will they have to pass it on to us? How much will gasoline go? What about rent? What about food?

What about the farmers and ranchers that we get to go hunting and fishing on their land. A small farmer told me his taxes would go up $2500 to $3000 per year.

The Bond is over $8,000,000. Is the interest figured in? Or added on? If it is added on, the prime rate is 8.5 percent using 8 percent times $8,000,000 = amortized 8,059,649.33.

A lot of veterans died so we have the RIGHT to VOTE. Don't let them down, VOTE !!!!!

Sincerely,

A tax payer
