County Government Value !
Taxes Support Library Services
Library: $6/Month
For less than
the cost of a new
best seller in
paperback – all
residents have
easy access to
everything the
County libraries
have to offer.
Taxes Keep Roads Safe Year-Round
Highway Maintenance:$5/Month
Less than you’d pay for a
couple gallons of gas –goes
toward maintaining the
County’s roads, bridges and
signs.
Taxes Maintain Parks and Trails
Parks and Trails:$1 /Month
More than 650 acres of
protected public parks
and recreation areas
and County trails.
Compared to buying
comparable property
of your own, it’s quite
a bargain.
Taxes Assure Emergency Response
911 Dispatch: $3 /Month
About $3 a month on the
average-value home – less
than you’d spend on a first
aid kit – goes toward
providing 911 emergency
dispatch services. What
value do you place on
knowing you can call 911
for any type of emergency
and receive an immediate
response?
