MASTERS DEGREE
IN TAXATION
One thing you learned upon opening your latest electric bill, is that each member of the Montgomery County Council has a Masters Degree in Taxation.
Combined with its status as a developer-beholden council, it's no surprise that they've eagerly joined some of those developers in creating a fourth level of taxation for some residents of the county. This is happening in Clarksburg and White Flint now. But the truth is, soon these districts will be created countywide wherever "urban town centers" are built in currently suburban, residential neighborhoods of single family homes. The new surprise twist? Even those who have lived in older housing there for decades will be charged the tax. Don't believe it? Just a few weeks ago, the county revealed that residents of The Forum will have to pay the White Flint development district tax! Are you next?
As you might imagine, I've opposed these development taxing districts from the beginning. Now watch a video as I speak to an audience of the tax district's first victims: the residents of Clarksburg.

If you oppose having to pay a new, fourth level of taxation, please email this video to 10 friends who live in Montgomery County. A vote for Robert Dyer is a vote against development tax districts!
