It’s a simple question: You make $58,000 a year. Would you be willing to move your family from the suburbs to the city for $69 per month?
According to a January 29, 2016 article in the Sun, legislators in Annapolis will be approving Mayor Rawlings-Blake’s request to use property tax credits to convince the majority of the city’s police officers and firefighters who don’t live in the city to move here. Currently, 72% of the city’s police and 64% of firefighters live in the suburbs.
If you’ve read this morning’s Sun, you’ve seen the article entitled, “Mayor offers plan to provide $2,500 annual tax credit to city police, firefighters, sheriff’s deputies.”
