Platte County voters to decide on property tax cap in April election
On Wednesday, Platte County commissioners voted to place a tax question on the April ballot that could provide relief to homeowners facing rising property taxes.
The move puts the decision to cap property tax increases in the hands of voters. However, one resident says the move comes too late for her family.
"You go from owning to renting because of these taxes," said Victoria Valdez, a Platte County resident. "It's not the American dream we're supposed to be having."
However, it's the reality Valdez and her husband now face. They own La Cabana Mexican restaurant.
