Tighten your belt, Dist. 57, like we all must do

Why is that every time I read an article about the District 57 tax increase it is compared to a home worth $100,000. I would like to know where all these homes are at. The average market value of a home in Mount Prospect (per Zillow) is approximately $300,000.

This would be a tax increase of over $700 per year.

I back a great education for all children. District 57 has to learn to tighten its belt like we all have to do.
