To the editor:
The Town of Perham is facing an unparalleled property tax increase from MSAD 45’s “preferred budget.” The local cost to the taxpayers of Perham is set to increase $67,147.82. This equals an increase in our taxes of 27.66 percent.
An informational meeting with the residents of the school district (Perham, Wade, Washburn) will be held at 6 p.m. on May 3 at Washburn Elementary School. It is imperative that every taxpayer attend this meeting to avoid a massive tax increase.
Perham’s elected officials cannot fight this increase without the support of residents of the town. Please make every effort to attend this very important meeting.
John Hedman
Town Administrator
Perham
