Real Estate tax bill


Mine came Saturday, I would assume so people could cool off before they can reach the assessor Monday morning. My assessed valuation went up 9.31% and I have made no improvements to our home since the last time! This means our tax bill will also go up by about the same percentage.
 We on the board are always doing all we can to improve property values but times like these I feel like what the heck, lets have refrigerators on the porches and people living in tents in the driveways. Irritation doesn't cover it.
 Remember when the tax caps were going to be the solution to these oversized tax increases. Well, we can all see it is in the wording of the law. It was meaningless, simply designed to calm the huddled masses as usual.
