A newly formed group opposing the Mehlville School District’s Proposition C will sponsor a kickoff rally at 7 p.m. today — Oct. 14 — at the Holiday Inn South County Center, 6921 S. Lindbergh Blvd.
The Mehlville Community Taxpayers Association, a grassroots, nonpartisan citizens’ group, is sponsoring the rally.
The MCTA is opposed to the proposed 88-cent tax-rate increase voters will consider Nov. 2, citing what it contends is the Board of Education’s lack of credibility and the community’s inability to afford Prop C, which district officials estimate will generate $15.4 million in new revenue annually.
