Amazing

Revenues doubled in the past five years, but a 15% cut will eliminate everything they, successfully, funded with half the money previously?

I think we're in, "pull the other one, it has bells on it," territory. 

The maths of the people crying about this tax cut aren't adding up.

BTW:  If tripling the exemption on property taxes results in a 15% drop in revenue, then you should be fine.

What these governments are going to have to do is separate the "must have" from the "nice to have."

Two things they keep bringing up to scare the normies is schools, fire and police.

Schools are already lavishly funded from the portion of property taxes that are unaffected by the homestead exemption.

In too many cases the city fire and police services are a duplication of effort and the county, with it's more diverse funding, could take over the task.

But the giant, huge, thing they're missing is the voters have been demanding relief from the taxation of their property and, by extension, they are saying they want the cities and counties of Florida to figure out how to live more cheaply. 

The voters are painfully aware that these same governments managed to provide all the services they threaten with half the money when there was just 45% inflation while the revenue increased 100%.

That means that the previous level of funding could survive a 28% cut in revenue.

The problem is the funding levels went up as the revenue did.

The voters get another chance to remind them in November by endorsing or rejecting the tax cut.
