Your tax bill says a lot

Most of us received our property tax bill during the past few days.  Take time and read it.  The front page does a great job explaining where government is working and where it is not.  Look at the last column where it gives a percentage increase or decrease and then compare that to what you think how that government entity is performing.  My bill shows a 40 % increase for Wickenburg Unified School District. I question if they are doing any better.  In my case the increase amounted to a whopping $280.  The West-Mec increase was 33%, but that amounted to very little money.  The Town of Wickenburg showed a 1% decrease with most of the other increases around 3% or so.
