Pueblo West Metro District: It's tax season, and we want to show where your money goes
Nina Vetter
Since we’re coming up on tax season, we thought we’d take a minute to run through Pueblo West taxes and where our local tax dollars go.
We know it’s probably not your favorite topic, but we are often asked where exactly the money goes.
First and foremost, you can find detailed information about exactly what the Pueblo West Metro District spends the $9 million in general fund dollars on our Financial Transparency Website at pueblowestmetro.com/taxdollars.
Two of our largest budgets are for fire emergency response and streets and roads, largely because both of these functions require a large number of employees to do the work.
