Too simply put, it is. Not all tax increases are bad. This one is good (and extremely modest).

They said to explain it like they were 5. I didn’t editorialize. 😀 But if I DID, I’d say it’s another tax grab attempt, and in an era of high inflation and a looming recession, I’ll keep every penny of my money that I can. But, I’m not editorializing. 🤷♀️

Five year olds don't understand the concept of taxes, but they might have some concept of the value of nicer parks to play in and a better place to call home. (They might not quite be ready to discuss historic preservation).

A (very slight) tax increase where double the money paid in comes directly back to the city to be spent on parks, historical preservation, and affordable housing.
