Vote NO on Public Facilities Sales Tax
On April 7, 2009, voters who live in Peoria County will decide whether to approve a .25% sales tax increase for public facilities purposes — specifically, to help construct the proposed Peoria Riverfront Museum. We believe Peoria County residents should vote NO.
I voted early, and an enthusiastic no. If it only takes $17 per person to get this done, (btw that’s more for my large family–but I still only got one vote at the ballot box) then it should be easy to raise the funds. Especially if they’d spent all the money they spent lobbying and advertising for taking my money without consent.
