HomeMy WebLinkAbout111023 email Extension of tax for PT Pool into Jeff Cty (0002)ALERT: BE CAUTIOUS This email originated outside the organization. Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them.
I will leave my many thoughts about the pool complex itself aside and focus on one aspect: taxation.
I do not think every Jefferson County taxpayer should be responsible for the cost of the complex, however that cost estimate is determined. The pool may get some users from the county,
but those costs can be offset with higher usage fees.
I live in Cape George Colony Club along with hundreds of other residents, mainly retirees. We have a fine indoor pool here, and I can’t see why we should pay into the HOA for our pool,
and then also pay the county tax.
I also wonder about folks who live in Forks - is it fair that they, too, be taxed for a pool in Port Townsend?
