Portsmouth
Concerned Citizens: The PCC
was founded in 1998 by a group of citizens who
believed that property taxes in Portsmouth had
reached a level of harm for some of our citizens
and had become an excessive burden to all. It is
our fundamental and passionate belief that property
taxes have risen to levels that hurt our citizens,
and that the cost of town government is the reason
for high property taxes - not high property values.
It is our view that the idea that the scope of
government should naturally grow year after year
is false. As a consequence, we have established
a specific budgetary goal for our town government:
the yearly growth in the cost of government should
not exceed the rate of inflation of the previous
year.
East
Providence Taxpayers Association: The
East Providence Taxpayers’ Association (EPTA) is
a nonpartisan civic organization dedicated to promoting
good government, excellence in public education,
and the general welfare of the entire community.
We believe our city government should provide citizens
with the highest quality services efficiently and
cost-effectively.
