A tax increase of 16.5% is proposed for the 2018 fiscal year. Let your voice be heard at the September 26th hearing.

Updates

September 22, 2017

The feedback I have received regarding the proposed tax increase confirms that many residents find this financial burden unsustainable. I am currently preparing a formal statement to present at the upcoming public hearing on behalf of those who signed this document.

The momentum behind this opposition confirms that our community finds this tax proposal unacceptable. Your engagement provides the necessary foundation to challenge this increase during the upcoming hearing.

If a 16.5% increase is proposed, I feel the residents are entitled to a line item breakdown of usage for the funds.

This proposed tax increase is not necessary, and way too much. We have new revenue coming in from all the newer buildings, and that should be sufficient to serve the needs of NBV. The reasons given for the proposed increase are ridiculous!

I just bought a property in NBV, this really hurt financially, and I won't be able to pay, so I will have to sell. How do you, as a community representation, think this will help us, your supporters??

I don't agree with such a huge increase. We already taking a big hit on our wallet after hurricane Irma.

NBV has huge reserve funds already. Where's the storm clean up on our streets? They are still littered with trees and debris after 2 weeks is not acceptable. This area has nothing to show for the countless tax increases over the years. Improve the area with more cafes, coffee shops, restaurants, markets and shopping. Add a small fee toll for the non-residents driving thru 79th street daily for your "needed" tax increase instead of asking residents to pay it.

Other Miami Dade cities will have no increases. What is the rationale for the NBV increase since the residents have not seen any improvements on city services?
