Letter: Costs of Measure A too high for Scotts Valley taxpayers

Editor,
Again, yet another tax proposal for Scotts Valley.
Measure K (schools) was recently passed, along with a local sales tax increase, and now taxpayers could potentially take on the burden of Measure A for 30 years.
No one in Scotts Valley will be exempt from this measure that will increase property taxes for 30 years. There should be another way to reach the goal of replacing the Scotts Valley Middle School without a tax increase of this magnitude.
If this measure passes, Scotts Valley will be on its way to becoming the city with the highest tax rate. All property owners, please read your tax bill to check your assessed value to determine how much of an increase you will incur.
This will cost some homeowners upwards of $400 or more every year for 30 years.
Take the time to read about the costs of Measure A before you vote.
