The latest tax increases are pricing us out of our homes and neighborhoods.

Loved Stafford! Taxes and Courthouse growth are killing me. Another Data center or housing development... oh we need it for taxes for the County. Then we go shop locally or out to eat and our prices are higher than a county over. Can't afford to buy anything and traveling is getting beyond horrible. They are going to force us all to eventually move for one of these reasons!

If this passes, I'll make note of the names, our phones have notepad apps to save this information, and I'll look for those names during elections.

Coming from Prince William over 25 years ago, No BPOL was one of the interesting benefits. Now you want to take it away while taxes have increased significantly. Stop raising taxes and start managing the budget more efficiently. The same thing all business owners and residents have to do.

This is not wise to be burdening our small businesses with new taxes.

I strongly oppose changing the business tax from one based on net profit to one based on gross receipts. Gross revenue is not profit. A business can bring in substantial revenue and still make little or no profit after payroll, rent, insurance, supplies, equipment, and other expenses.

Taxes continually go up and we see no benefits in our Rhodes and in our school Systems… Enough is enough

I have been concerned about our real estate and personal property taxes in Stafford, and this is another concerning taxation trend for the county.

Because we are already taxed to death enough is enough. You’re building these schools that are going to be obsolete before they even get open. You are allowing builders to build on every piece of property. They can find you are making harder on the individuals that have lived in this county for 100 years with their families and paid taxes every year

I'm tired of our money being wasted on unnecessary projects and giving tax breaks to certain businesses
