A teensy bit of government truth-telling

This notice is on the city of Houston's website:

Tax Rate Notification

The City of Houston adopted a tax rate that will raise more taxes for maintenance and operations than last year's tax rate. The tax rate will raise taxes for maintenance and operations on a $100,000 home by approximately $5.77.

Mayor White wants Houstonians to know that the preceding announcement should really say "Harris County Appraisal District," instead of "City of Houston."
