The presentation was designed as an overview of the tax proposal, including areas of focus such as major expense drivers, contracts with MCSO, town employee staffing, the 10-year financial projection comparing revenue to expenditures, as well as other considerations outside of a primary property tax to address those the expected shortfall.

Also outlined in the presentation is a comparative look at Fountain Hills and other Arizona communities in regards to sales tax rates, municipal tax rates and operating costs per capita.

Finally, the town’s accountability plan is outlined in the event of tax passage.
