I agree with the letter in the Oct. 23 edition. Enough with property tax hikes.
Every time I turn around, someone wants to raise property taxes. The mayor of Kent, King County or the state. And now the Kent City Council supports King County’s efforts to raise them. Really? The city of Kent recently proposed its own property tax hike.
How about a new approach? If you don’t have the money to pay for something new without raising taxes, don’t do it. And if the city can’t afford to give the mayor a raise without raising taxes, now is not the time.
