Message of the Day – A Window Sticker
This plastic “Vote Yes” sign is what proponents of the McHenry Elementary School District 15 tax hike referendum want people to put on their back windows. This one was found on a van at McHenry High School’s West Campus.
Yesterday, the Northwest Herald ran a letter to the editor from McHenry resident Rick Wesley. He said he checked the District 15 web site and concluded that by 2010 the taxes on a $200,000 home would increase $712, which he noted would be a 47% increase from the 2005 tax. He thought that was too high an increase.
