BECOME A TAXPAYER WATCHDOG
Last year, the Douglas County Board of Commissioners raised our property taxes by 2c per $100 valuation, despite protestations from county taxpayers. Taxpayers suffering during this recession did not need a tax hike. The county now is formulating its FY 2011-12 budget. The only way to head off another tax hike and to lower the county property tax rate is to understand how to analyze the budget to find waste, inefficiencies, and duplications, then make suggestions to cut the budget. That is why we are mobilizing taxpayers to become citizen auditors. Learn how to become a citizen auditor at our next meeting on Wed. March 16, 6:30 PM at Millard Library, 132nd & Westwood Lane in Omaha. Guest speakers: Two county administrators who will explain the Douglas County budget process.
