Dakota County to Raise Taxes for Bus Service
Residents of Dakota County (Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan, Lakeview, Rosemount, etc.) may soon be paying more in county taxes, thanks to the rollout of BRT.At least bus service is in general smarter than light rail (Cato). The county was one of a few government in the county to win a federal funding competition, which helped get the project going. But "free" money doesn't last forever, and now county residents will be told to pay up. Will BRT be a cost-effective way of addressing traffic congestion? Stay tuned.
