Of course cost is an issue. A new library would be AWESOME for Clinton residents and we know Clinton deserves the BEST library possible, but everyone has to commit a little bit more.
With help from the assessor’s office and a municipal bonding company supplying some crucial information, we can offer an estimate of the cost to the average taxpayer.
Let’s break it down to manageable chunks:
- Approximate annual cost to the average property taxpayer: $154
- Approximate monthly cost: $13
- Approximate weekly: $3
- Daily: less than $0.50
Could you give up a weekly coffee out for a new library ($3 @ Starbucks)? Asking for a friend.
