Hold the line on new taxes Dallas

URGENT!!!

As you may know, the Dallas City Council is preparing to raise property taxes again (via the Dallas Morning News):
Amid name-calling and bitterness on both sides, a divided Dallas City Council narrowly agreed Monday to include a 6.5 percent property tax rate increase in the city's coming budget.

The council will take a final vote on the budget Sept. 22, but Monday's 8-7 straw vote all but assures that the city will see the tax rate increase from 74.79 cents to 79.7 cents per $100 in home value.
According to a recent internal poll, 97 PERCENT of our members responding OPPOSED a property tax increase in Dallas.

If you are part of the 97 percent opposing a property tax increase and are willing to do something about it, you must act now.

If you want to STOP this tax increase, you need to do the following:
1. CONTACT Councilmember Angela Hunt and encourage her to vote AGAINST the property tax increase.

2. CONTACT the Dallas City Secretary's Office at (214) 670-3738 or email at citysecretary@dallascityhall.com and REQUEST TO SPEAK at the City Council Meeting Tomorrow morning (Wednesday).

3. Having done step 2 above, SHOW UP at Dallas City Hall (1500 Marilla, 6th Floor) by 9:00 am and LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD.
C'mon, y'all, let's stop this thing!
