It's either the RFA or each city runs their own levy. Duplication of effort/cost is inevitable in the latter, whereas a combination provides more options down the line for efficiency. I for one like to think several steps down the line and would rather pay less in the long run for more services with the RFA than a shortsighted view of voting down whatever tax increase is in front of my face.
You're going to pay more regardless, and I would prefer to pay the lesser amount over the long haul.
It's flabbergasting to me how some of the people here think that an RFA and FBC are a brand spanking new invention from the pits of taxation hell; there are RFAs up and down the Puget Sound with FBCs and those communities seem to be thriving and doing just fine.
