(KMOT) – The Minot City Council did an about-face Tuesday and voted to send a letter to the legislature formally opposing caps on the budget and property taxes.Property taxes and tax reform are a key issue during this legislative session.Gov. Kelly Armstrong, R-ND, laid out his tax reform proposal at the beginning of the session, which includes capping local tax increases by 3% and relying on oil tax revenue.Near the end of Tuesday’s regular meeting, Council Member Scott Samuelson brought the motion to the council to oppose the caps, with a second from Council Member Paul Pitner.The vote was 6-1, with Council Member Lisa Olson as the lone ‘no’ vote. Olson indicated she was against caps, but the timing of the message to state lawmakers was wrong.Some members of the council initially agreed it was too soon but changed their minds after Samuelson brought the motion.Your News Leader will have more on the council members’ discussion on the matter this week.<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite4" alt=":mad:" title="Mad    :mad:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":mad:" /> Vote someone new in you say...............3 new council members were voted in this last November, and their campaign promise was "we will lower property taxes"............... well that didn't last long. <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="🤬" title="Face with symbols on mouth    :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f92c.png" data-shortname=":face_with_symbols_over_mouth:" /></blockquote>
