Veteran millage

EDITOR:

The millage is for the purpose of funding, equipping, staffing, maintaining and operating a County Department of Veterans Affairs to provide relief, support, and assistance services to all qualified veterans, their eligible spouses and families. The proposed millage for 1/10 of 1 percent is for 5 years. If your home has a taxable value of $100,000 the cost to you will be $10 a year. That’s a very small amount to pay for all the veterans have given to us. Delta County has had one VSO officer for years and he is very busy and needs help. The older our veteran population gets, the more they will need help in applying for benefits they deserve, but the paperwork is overwhelming. It’s time we give back to our veterans. Delta County has over 3,000 veterans. Some don’t even know they are entitled to benefits. I fully support the passing of this proposal. Please vote Yes for our veterans.
