Enough with the tax hikes every single year. My property taxes are already way too high for this town.
i work hard for my money and this just feels like another way for them to take more. listen to the residents for once.
Taxes in Brookfield are out of control. Fix the spending first before asking for more money.
THE PEOPLE DESERVE A SAY. Stop trying to hide the real numbers from us.
Finally someone is standing up to these guys. We need to vote on the full budget not some watered down version they want us to see.
