Numbers correction
A story (“A Taxing Proposition) in the North Coast News on Oct. 21 stated that, if the lid lift passes, in 2010 Ocean Shores will collect $310,000 more (a 12% increase) than it did in the basic and EMS levies of 2009. That was based on as assessment of $1.32 billion.
On Monday night, Art Wuerth, the city’s finance director, passed out materials showing a new (preliminary)assessment of $1,383,470,423. At that value, the $2.22 levy would collect $3,071,304, or $466,147 more (a 17% increase) than the 2009 basic + EMS.

Does that mean the lid Lift for EMS will get 691,735 instead of the original 674,000 published for the council meeting Monday?
