Hf those 6H,HH®, or <br /> 45~, generate $1®. or less per year. 1 f those parcels had a <br /> minimum tai rate to pay of $1HH. per year, they would generate <br /> $3.5 million per year! <br /> $1 HH. per year worBcs out to be $H. per month. This is actually a <br /> uery necessary step for the County to taBce to be able to provide <br /> more services which are being requested such as senior <br /> activities and transportation and much needed infrastructure. <br /> $3,5®H,H®H. more to the County budget u?ould be uery uery <br /> useful, and it would not be a huge problem for most of the <br /> residents of Hawaii Island County. <br /> Please encourage the County Council members to support <br /> increasing the minimum tai rate to $1®®. per year. <br /> Sincerely yours, <br /> Nlarjori Erway <br /> 324-4624 <br /> (over) ~ <br /> Na <br /> ~ No. ' <br /> <br />
