Letter to the Editor LFP Prop 1, Whos really behind "Good Govt LFP?"

Shoreline, WALocal News

Lake Forest Park residents have raised concerns about a mailer from an anonymous group called Good Govt LFP, which claims a 61% increase in property tax rates. Upon examination, the actual proposal indicates a much smaller increase of approximately $19. 90 per month for typical homeowners. The group's failure to register with the Public Disclosure Commission and its secretive nature have sparked skepticism among community members. Resident Matt Muilenburg argues that civic debates should be based on transparency, not misleading information.

He questions the motives of those behind the mailer, emphasizing the importance of identifiable voices in local discussions. Muilenburg highlights that the community deserves to know who is behind such claims, especially regarding vital issues like Proposition 1. He calls for accountability and a focus on facts rather than fear-based tactics. Honest dialogue is crucial for fostering trust and informed decision-making in Lake Forest Park.
