Macedonia Tax Levies

November 8 2016
Macedonia CAN AFFORD to pay for a regular road and
storm water program
Priorities need to be strictly established and followed

No more placing redecorating and dugouts ahead of roads and storm

water

Recreation and Parks Need a regular capital flow to

replace and enhance features
Disciplined plan needed Do not need $21 million

Macedonia can KEEP its tax rate at 2% like most of

our neighboring cities and pay the services we need.

Vote NO on Issues 18 and 19 NOV 8.
