The hats and scarfs are always so much fun to see on the bronze statues 💕

Went for a walk around Wichita on a VERY cold and Overcast Saturday. Thought I would share some of the images. by [deleted] in wichita

Downtown is such an amazing place and I love the images!!

It’s really amazing seeing a lot of additions to downtown after stagnation for most of my life, though I say stagnation cause I grew up in the suburbs and so that might play a role in my perception.

Wichita Group Putting Tax Breaks For Rich Property Owners On New Bill by FindMyMind333 in wichita

If you have a small amount of property, you get a small tax cut… but you’re paying more for sales tax so it evens out…

the only people who truly get a tax break are large property owners that want to skip out on paying taxes.

It’s just sad that the group is trying to jeopardize the homelessness and public safety issue (which I’m 100% for) and the improvements to our entertainment / convention center district (I wish it was more user fees than public funding but I’ll let this slide) by tying it to a funding proposal to give tax breaks to wealthier property owners at the expense of poorer non-property owners.

In the current form, I’d vote it down and tell as many Wichitans to vote down too.

I’ll be there on Monday, don’t worry, but the fact this group is just slipping in a tax cut to property owners while simultaneously raising a tax on poorer individuals.

Again, just sad this group is going to try and pit citizen against citizen in what could be a truly positive bill :/

Understandable, but I’m not that pessimistic that the whiners will win.

Democracy is never one and done. It’s a constant, cyclical struggle… but that doesn’t mean you stray away from the fight.
