Sales Tax Growth for 2008

We ask all of the citizens of Carroll County to check with your local merchants and give them the first chance at providing the products and services you need before making purchases outside your county. It does make a big difference in the economic health of Carroll County to keep those taxable dollars within our borders, remember, every dollar you spend in other counties goes to support their schools, roads, county employees and businesses. Check this article on how just the sales tax revenue affects our school systems, its students and our teachers. If we as a county are to provide decent schools and qualified teachers for our young people we need to build those revenues with sales taxes and not with higher property taxes. If you're truly concerned with keeping your property taxes from rising higher each year there is only one way to do it and that is to keep all the purchasing dollars here,,, IN OUR COUNTY.

Lets build a better Carroll County by shopping our local merchants!
