San Mateo-Foster City proposed school tax is somewhat progressive


"This is my escape plan."
From San Mateo Daily Journal/Heather Murtagh, 2/6/12. "New school tax nearing June ballot".

"Voters in the San Mateo-Foster City Elementary School District could see a bond measure of up to $19 per $100,000 of a property’s value on the June ballot.

Survey results of possible voters were generally supportive, which led the board to continue the consideration process of putting a bond measure, which supports facilities, on the June ballot. On Thursday, the board gave the green light for staff to work on a districtwide measure to upgrade facilities such as adding classrooms, upgrading infrastructure and building a fourth elementary school in Foster City. A possible list of projects and more details will be brought back to the board at a future meeting."  Read more.
