    St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman calls for a 8.5% property tax hike in his first budget, attempting to plug a $16.5 million gap.

    Who voted for a tax hike?!?! :mad:

    What's everyone's opinion? Does this mean the taxes we pay for stuff in Ramsey County will have a 15% sales tax slapped on it? I also read somewhere that Saint Paul's property taxes was increased just a week ago.
