ASK the hard questions! How much money is it costing to start the BID? Where are they getting the money for their advertising? Are they using OUR merchant association funds for this? WHY cant Brannan pay for the lights when he can get money for this BID? How much is Perch group being paid? They are being deceptive, they think by NOT answering any questions YOU will forget – imaging AFTER they get $560,000 of our money!3 more property owners voted NO to the 3rd ave BID as of yesterday! ITS TIME TO END THIS TAX! VOTE NO TO ANY NEW TAX!a bid is a tax, a bid always increases,…

There is ALWAYS another way
3rd Ave Lights can be saved WITHOUT A TAX. Councilman brannan Justin Brannan gave the BID committee $36,000 of our money, 5th ave received $300,000 of our money to study a problem they spent over $7 million and failed to solve – basic math – $300,000 + $36,000 = $360,000 – 3rd ave lights cost $30k a year THAT’S 10 YEARS OF LIGHTS without a tax – Councilman brannan and the BID must explain why they cant have the lights paid for without a TAX! facts – NEVER trust anyone that says “there’s no other way” than wants to tax all of us – Ask them all the hard questions…

Its OK we collect these taxes says the 3rd ave BID
“Its OK we collect these TAXES” says the 3rd ave bid web site BID web site while posting pictures of businesses and people THAT VOTED NO TO THE BID! Very deceptive! A BID is a TAX, A BID never goes away, A BID always increases! The city is NOW charging ALL of us for our storefronts – we are being taxed for having a business! A BID will be an ADDITIONAL DOUBLE TAX on all of us.
