Alexander Strenger
Mayor
The largest portion of of our property taxes go to AISD, and many of these funds go to poorer districts in the state. I propose that we split our school district in half (east and west side) so that the East side can get the money that AISD would otherwise have to give to the state. This will result in 1/2 of our residents having lower property taxes, which will make Austin more affordable, and will free up taxing capacity so that the city can address our homeless population.
