The Editor,

Re. “Property tax shock ‘nauseating’” (Letters, The Tri-City News, June 3).

Please be advised it is not only Port Moody with excessive property tax increases, but also Port Coquitlam and Coquitlam.

In PoCo, my friend’s property tax increase is approximately 13%. Thank you, mayor and council.

In Coquitlam, the increase in my property Tax is only 6.47%. Thank you, mayor and council.

Please advise letter writer Rick Evon that these tax increases are small compared to the tax increases the Tri-City and other Metro Vancouver mayors are seeking for transit.

All three mayors believe in the policy of high taxes and increased expenditures. They are all out of control.

Albert Poy, Coquitlam
