Stopped a Property Tax Hike Before It Happened

When a proposed property tax increase came before the City Council, Michelle Tanner was the first and only one to initially vote against it. The initial vote stood at 4–1 in favor of raising taxes, but Michelle held the line and made the case for fiscal responsibility. By the final vote, the council reversed course and rejected the increase 4–1. Without Michelle's early opposition, that tax hike very likely would have passed.
