Boston Tea Party? – Green Valley News

Some of us will be taxed without benefit under this new road tax proposal. Many of the homeowners in Green Valley have private streets that we maintain from homeowner dues. In our case, the per-resident cost is $70 each year for preventive maintenance and $230 each year for future replacement.

Many residential areas have county streets that are maintained by the county. Now we have the increased taxation for county streets. These neighborhoods have not, in general, been paying for their street maintenance in addition to road taxes as some of us have.

Will the Board of Supervisors consider spreading the increased tax revenue for road maintenance by formula around to HOAs who are funding their own roads? While it may not be the new American way, it does seem fair that all those who are taxed receive the benefits of taxation.
