Aaron Chadborne discusses the contentious issues on the ballot for Election Day, particularly in Cape Elizabeth, where a $86.5 million school construction bond and a town center zoning amendment allowing multi-family housing are being voted on. He criticizes the community’s reluctance to support housing development, citing a broader housing crisis. Chadborne also highlights the impact of rising property taxes and school budgets on aging populations with fixed incomes, noting that tax increases often outpace cost-of-living adjustments. He criticizes the misuse of federal pandemic funds in education and calls for tax control for homeowners, likening it to rent control for renters.
