What Would It Cost To Become A Town?

Of all the issues in the Indian Land incorporation debate, none sits closer to the heart of the matter for most Panhandle residents than taxation. With a little more than two weeks left until the March 27 referendum, many voters simply want to know the answer to two basic questions before they decide: How much will it cost and what will it buy me? The answer is, there’s no way to know until after the decision is made. If residents decide to incorporate, the new town of Indian Land’s first town council will decide the answers to both questions.
