Tax hike based on fuzzy math

We’ve been told Springfields’s tax hike is temporary.

We’ve also been told Springfield will not be cutting spending but this new “cap” allows for annual increases in spending.

If spending continues to increase, how can a “temporary” tax be allowed to drop off the books? It sounds like fuzzy math to me as well as a permanent, temporary tax increase.
