They want to bump it up to 100 thousand from 75 thousand dollars explains Mayor Taylor Bachrach.
“And so council wants to send a bit of signal that we want to make things more affordable for local property owners, and raising that threshold is a part of that,” says Bachrach.
Councilor Phile Brienesse was the only councillor originally oppose to the idea.
Council will meet tomorrow(TUES to adopt the bylaw.
