Description |
An anti-Metro chart titled "The Tax Hike", circa 1962. The chart describes the supposed tax increases that would result from the consolidation of the city and county governments. There was a substantial protest movement against consolidation at this time. Some opponents argued that creating a single government entity would be more costly in the long run and would not meet public service needs of the community. b & w; 11 x 14 in. |
