It appears that the majority of taxes paid for the services of the Benefits District are being utilized for the purpose of sanitation. In fact they have secured grants in the past for the specific purpose of purchasing $600. baskets, where the City will provide them for free to the community. They report that they checked the various neighborhoods and were advised that the neighborhoods wanted them to handle the sanitation issues exclusively and were not so interested in security issues.
Since this community pays the City via real estate taxes for this sanitation purpose as well, we think that we as a community who are obligated legally to pay this surtax should be granted an exemption on our City taxes because we don't have the free City corner baskets which have been replaced by the $600, bill board CVCBD baskets. The City is obligated to empty free city baskets in communities that don't have a Benefits District, but the City is not obligated to empty these $600. CVCBD baskets.
What do you think?
