Dear Editor,
[Re: Maple Ridge council considers budget with 3.6% property tax increase, Nov. 28, The News]
How can anyone imagine imposing tax or price increases in anyway, shape, or manner at this time?
Those who do are obviously, in no way, concerned about the general population who have suffered losses due to the pandemic… which is not even close to being over.
RECENT LETTER: Taxpayer calls for a reality check on proposed tax hike
A freeze on monetary increases during COVID-19 should be a imposed until we are returned to a realistic situation that can be coped with.
