Bad MARTA Deal


What you need to know about MARTA in Gwinnett, by Joseph Newton, 2/15/19.

Marta in Gwinnett - The Rail Transit to Nowhere Regular Updates on Facebook - Follow, Like, Comment and Share ‌

On March 19th you will be asked to vote on a blind ballot. The question on the ballot does not tell you that your Gwinnett Sales Tax will increase to 7% if you vote ‘Yes’ on approval of a 40+ year transit agreement between MARTA & Gwinnett. 

The ballot also does not tell you that you are actually voting to let MARTA takeover your bus system and collect $45 million per year. The system is now being run for less than $15 million per year--without any tax increase.

The ballot also does not disclose that the “Yes vote” obligates Gwinnett to pay well over $12 billion to build 3 and a half miles of heavy rail to NOWHERE and the project will take over 15 years to build out.

You may be dead in 15 years, but until then you will pay not only the one percent additional sales tax, but additional property taxes, user fees and anything else Gwinnett can put on you for this financially irresponsible project ...until you die!

Visit MARTAHOAX.COM for more info. VOTE NO ON THE BALLOT QUESTION ON MARCH 19! STAY CONNECTED ‌
