RESOLUTE Citizen Analysis

This is a real, substantial tax cut for Florida homeowners, and the structure is honest about what it touches: it lowers the bite on county and city taxes while deliberately leaving school funding alone. For a family trying to hold onto a home, raising the exemption to $150,000 and then $250,000 is meaningful relief, and dropping the non-homestead assessment cap from 10% to 5% slows how fast the tax bill climbs on everything else. The harder question for a RESOLUTE voter is downstream: property taxes fund local services, so weigh whether your county can absorb the cut without leaning on new fees or debt, and read the spending-restriction language as a feature, not a footnote. A 'yes' favors letting households keep more of what they earn and tightening the leash on local spending; just go in clear-eyed that lost revenue lands somewhere.

"A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just."

— Proverbs 13:22 (KJV)
