The referendum is voted on by the public so contributing to the campaign fund does not guarantee the company being selected but what it does is put them in a position to benefit from the additions of new businesses and housing. Schools sell the town and your homes. If this is defeated youwill be the same people complaining about tour house being undervalued.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-71780075989182901832015-04-22T10:36:57.176-05:002015-04-22T10:36:57.176-05:00Except that even per the erroneous DLGF finance we...Except that even per the erroneous DLGF finance website - $200,000 AV - $45,000 HOMESTEAD DEDUCTION - $54,250 SUPPLEMENTAL HOMESTEAD DEDUCTION - $3,000 MORTGAGE DEDUCTION = $97,750 TAXABLE AV x .4117 / 100 = $402.

Hopefully folks in Brownsburg know their school district's actual needs to decide if this is worth it. <br />All of the supporters you mention are in the business of design, construction or materials supply. This very much suggests the delivery team has already been selected, which suggests the cart is a ways ahead of the horse on this. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-55260641285908422452015-04-20T19:09:29.699-05:002015-04-20T19:09:29.699-05:00The 95 Million is for the children!
