Urges College to use some of $22 million tax dollars sent every year by Verde Valley residents to west side of County and invest it in a centrally located CTE facility on the east side
Camp Verde citizen Carol German pleaded with the Yavapai Community College Governing Board at its October meeting to use some of the $22 million in tax dollars paid every year by Verde Valley residents in property taxes to build a centralized Career and Technical Education Center over here. Ms. German said that she appreciated the efforts made so far in the Valley by the College in its fledgling CTE effort but “they needed to be expanded.”
Ms. German also said that the Verde Valley is in great need of a trained workforce and the College should address the issue head on with a centralized CTE facility. She pleaded with the Board saying, “Please hear our cry, you have the money, use our tax dollars, and help us get that established.”
