Where are we now?
The 2021 budget for Hales Corners allots every 30 cents on the dollar you pay in taxes comes back to the Village coffers.
What do you get for 30 cents?
8% or 2 cents supports General Government
9% or 3 cents supports Library & Recreation
12% or 4 cents supports Fire Department
14% or 4 cents supports Debt Service (borrowed money)
15% or 5 cents supports Public Works
39% or 12 cents supports Police & Communication
So you are asking..."Where does my 70 cents out of very tax dollar go?"
5% or 4 cents supports MATC (Milwaukee Area Technical College)
7% or 5 cents supports MMSD (Milwaukee Metro Sewage District)
20% or 14 cents supports Milwaukee County
38% or 27 cents supports Whitnall School District
New ideas for creative budgeting are crucial.
For example: To fix all the roads scheduled in Hales Corners from 2018-2036, I introduced and passed a $1 million dollar a year local road repair plan without a tax increase to residents while cutting the 33 year projection date down to 15 years. Creative planning and cost saving ideas must be embraced on the Village Board.
I read your post about the 10 unique American values and found the reflections on independence and community particularly striking. It got me thinking about how when you decide to hire expert for Canvas assignments, it’s not just about getting something done it’s about aligning with services that respect integrity, value learning, and support your overall journey rather than just delivering an outcome.
The post highlights the importance of dedication and personal values, something that deeply connects to modern education as well. In my experience, maintaining such consistency while managing online exams isn’t always easy. That’s where online exam takers play a vital role. I’ve personally worked with Take My Online Exam Pro, whose guidance helped me stay organized, reduce stress, and focus on mastering the material rather than just racing deadlines.
Reading about the 10 unique American values on the blog made me think deeply about what it means to step forward, face responsibility, and stand by your own convictions. It also brought to mind a moment when someone might say pay someone to do my online exam just to get the grade and move on. But if we believe in self-reliance, agency, and growth values that stood out in that post then the richer choice is to engage with the work ourselves, even when it’s hard, because that’s what builds character, not just the final score.
