Common good

The vote was split, but the decision to ask property owners to fund real city costs is good news.

The greater purpose of taxes and fees is to fund the functions of the city for the common good of everyone. Words like taxes and fees are not bad words; they are responsible and caring words.

The amount is small and not a burden to most Fountain Hills property owners.

Common good

Thanks to the council for the opportunity to help care for this city!
