As of last night, Board members were still being told that there was a $0 and 0% tax increase with the 2019-2020 school budget.
Marc Capizzi had stated and put on a sheet that there
would be an $8 increase for the average property owner.
The truth: this
budget would raise taxes $197.16 on a home assessed at $318.00.
Everything said and acted upon over the last few
months was premised on one big lie.
Speaking about lies, you were told that the average
Lodi homeowner’s school taxes went down $40 with the 2018-19 school budget
after the Board received millions more in additional state aid last July.
That also was a lie.
I was really surprised to learn
tonight that your school taxes actually went up with the 2018-2019 school budget.
Marc Capizzi told Lodi that taxes were lowered to help
a Capizzi relative running for re-election.
Lodi’s corrupt political machine lies about
everything, especially your taxes. You see that right now with the current Lodi
mayor and council. A bunch of liars always taking from the struggling taxpayers and giving to their relatives.
