Mr. Mayor, please email me (wmdtvmatt - at - yahoo - dot -com) and let's see if we're getting the full story here. I don't think I've missed a Butler County GOP meeting recently where we decided to raise taxes...
How else am I supposed to take this...
The JEDD will collect a 1.5 percent income tax on future employees earnings within the proposed district....as anything but a tax increase on people who work in our community. These are folks who already contribute to our economy and I suspect that this will make Fairfield less attractive for businesses...at a time when Butler county is doing fairly well considering the state of the economy. I guess we don't want people to work in Fairfield...or something.
