Aroca City currently funds its public schools through taxes on property. In place of this system, the city plans to introduce a sales tax of three percent on all retail sales in the city. ###Critics protest that three percent of current retail sales falls short of the amount raised for schools by property taxes. ### The critics are correct on this point. Nevertheless, implementing the plan will probably not reduce the money going to Aroca’s schools. Several large retailers have selected Aroca City as the site for huge new stores, and these are certain to draw large numbers of shoppers from neighboring municipalities, where sales are taxed at rates of six percent and more. In consequence, retail sales in Aroca City are bound to increase substantially.
求教##间句子的意思虽然大概含义可以从后面的同义转述理解出来但还是想问一下~

Critics: revenues of 3% retail tax are less than the "current" tax dollars raised from property taxes.

译文：A城市最近通过财产税集资建立公立学校。在这个系统中，这个城市计划介绍引入一个对城市内所有零售产业征收3%的销售税。批评者反对说：3%的现有销售税会使得建设学校所用的财产税不够用。这个批评在这一点上是正确的。然而，完成这份计划可能不会减少建设学校的资金。一些大型零售商选择在A城市建立零售点，并且在某种程度上可以吸引大量邻近城市居民前来消费，那些临近城市税收在6%以上。结果是，零售销量在A城市注定会显著增长。
是要这个吗？
