TAXPAYER SUPPORT <br /> <br /> The Community Survey indicated that the taxpayer would <br /> support a $40 per year Community Center tax increase. By <br /> stretching the bond term from 15 to 20 years, the tax <br /> increase can be decreased allowing for more funding. <br /> <br />In addition to reviewing the bond referendum issues, the <br />operating costs of the Community Center must be carefully <br />and thoroughly reviewed. Questions such as what user fees <br />will be charged, whether non-residents will be able to use <br />the facility and at what rate, staffing needs required to <br />operate the facility and other questions need to be <br />answered. Most community centers are not self supporting. <br />For that reason it is important that funding sources for <br />operating costs be identified and earmarked for that <br />purpose. <br /> <br /> <br />
