Two weeks after the Kingman City Council informally announced it would ask voters to re-establish a property tax in a special election that could be held next spring, a group calling itself No City Property Tax has organized to fight the effort.

What wouldn’t work, say opponents, is placing another tax on a citizenry that already struggles mightily.
