I just got my tax assessment information for this year and I'm going to get another pair of glasses because I couldn't be reading this correctly. My assessed value rose from $425,000 to $460,000. I'd like to know what foreign papers this assessor is reading? I just refinanced my home and the bank says it is worth only $385,000 and that's closer to the truth.
I also love the way the assessor's letter says that a change in your property's assessment does not necessarily indicate that your taxes will change. What planet have you been living on? I want to take the fastest shuttle there!
Oh yes isn't that just ducky that in bold type it says that this is a hypothetical estimate based on prior year tax levies and does not represent your actual future tax liability. Why bother printing this paper and sending it out?
The funniest part is that the tax liability is going down by $37.00. I'd like to know is there a calculation course that assessors take? Must be Abbot and Costello math?
13 x 7 = 28

13 3+3+3+3+3+3+3 = 21 and next line 21+1+1+1+1+1+1+1=28
Every year it's the same folks trying to convince the assessor to open their eyes to see whats going on in real world. Just once I'd like to see an entire town revolt and show up at once to have an assessor explain why we should be paying taxes on assessed values that just don't apply.
