Message from the Mayor: Bond Election 2010 City Council has received many questions regarding the financial condition of the city and how it will be affected by the bond election this year. People have asked how McKinney can have a bond election and promise that taxes will not increase. For the answer, I would point to the past seven years when I have been elected to McKinney City Council either as a council member or as Mayor. You will see that during that time, City Council reduced the tax rate three out of the first four years and held the tax rate flat the remainder of that period. |
