"Cedar Rapids property taxes likely to increase," the sub-headline reads in today's The Gazette.
We should be surprised, but it is a tall order, with the already over reliance on Property Taxes in the State of Iowa. The water faucet appears to be on at times at City Hall, before, during and after the Flood of 2008.
I guess that should be City Hall North, since the Flood of 2008.
Is the City Council and our City Manager... moving the City operations into a post-flood budget? Are we working to avoid encouraging businesses and people to move out, due to high property taxes? The impact on most, since most people are on fixed income, will be high.
A Limited Government is important. The burden of government is continuing to rise. The Flood of 2008 will only put more pressures on businesses and citizens.

Cedar Rapids, Iowa USA is a community of approximately 126,000 people and located approximately 30 minutes north of the University of Iowa. The community is located roughly four hours west of Chicago, Illinois. Cedar Rapids is roughly 4-5 hours drive from Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Omaha and Minneapolis. A community that once boast, that we are the world's leader in exports per capita. A community rebuilding from a change in form of government and from the Flood of 2008!
