How will the Citys plans for the Aurora Corridor Project and Interurban Trail affect tax rates?
Both the Aurora Corridor Project and Interurban Trail are funded by a series of state and federal grants as well as Shoreline’s capital improvement fund. No taxes will be raised to pay for the operation and maintenance of either set of improvements. These costs will be figured into the City’s operations and maintenance budget once the project is complete. In fact, both projects represent federal tax dollars already paid by Shoreline residents being returned to benefit their community.
