New "No on 4" Video Release & Property Tax Alert

The "VOTE NO on 4" Campaign has released the third installment in its "Story of St. Pete Beach" web-video series which features a Florida property owner hurt by a local version of Amendment 4.  The last two "VOTE NO on 4" videos have racked up more than 135,000 "hits" or views.  Take a few moments today to view this new video and pass it along to your e-contacts: http://florida2010.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=pages.videos2&vidid=0_on319a7n

Sharing these videos via email is a quick, convenient and cost-free way for you to help educate Florida voters on the devastating local impact of this anti-property rights amendment.

"With more than 280 supporting organizations and nearly 2,000 volunteers, our campaign has been able to distribute web-videos quickly and broadly," said Ryan Houck, executive director of the "VOTE NO on 4" campaign.  "We've also released dozens of volunteer videos, featuring business, civic and labor leaders sharing their views on Amendment 4." Those videos can be found at http://www.florida2010.org/.

Citizens for Lower Taxes and a Stronger Economy (The "VOTE NO on 4" campaign) is the political committee which was formed to oppose Amendment 4. They are coordinating a grassroots network of more than 30 local campaign chairs and over 1900 volunteers.  To date, more than 280 labor, business, civic, and planning organizations oppose Amendment 4; more join the fight every day.  To access materials you can share with friends, families, co-workers and others in your personal or corporate communications networks, please visit http://www.florida2010.org/.

URGENT PROPERTY TAX ALERT:

In a recent CPR newsletter entitled, "Protect Your Property, By Checking Its Working Value," CPR stressed the importance of property owners pro-actively contacting local property appraisers to learn current "working" or estimated assessed values - in order to ensure that if your property's assessed value has decreased, your official assessed value reflects the decrease so  your property tax burden may be reduced.
