How sad. More of our elderly will be forced out because of taxes. Two huge school bonds last year, two huge water related bonds, now a huge bond for the community college. I think we have to be mindful of senior citizens when we propose and pass these tax increases.

What all these school districts and other government entities need are new bond issues to pay off all the old bond issues that are still being paid off.

"How sad. More of our elderly will be forced out because of taxes."
And Ebola.
C'mon. Anyone in an MP house for 30 years has such low tax payments, compared to their neighbors.... I'd love to see the looks on the neighbor's face when the complaints start!
"More of our elderly" How many, exactly, have been forced out?
"More"

Farmville, you are certainly free with other people's money. I have neighbors who are 86 and 94. They have no retirement and live on Social Security so yet ANOTHER huge school bond is extremely difficult for them. There are many elderly in Menlo Park who are not "rich". Many of them are hanging on by their fingrnails.
