ReplyDeleteThe mansion over on Independence Ave only went up 50K while others in Hyde Park went up over 100K for smaller homes and both areas are high crime. There was no rhyme or reason for the tax assessment this year. This is what you get when you keep voting the way you are. Don't forget that Go Bond get tacked on too. Without an appraisal you aren't going to get lowered.
Frank was an ass for raising the majority of peoples taxes by 14.9%, they did that knowing it was pushing the maximum amount, he could’ve done this in increments but he’s too damn greedy, he’s a prick that needs to be smacked down. Here’s to praying the state makes it right. Would Nicole Galloway get involved with her party’s mess? She usually only goes after Republicans.
ReplyDeleteThis will be spun to raise taxes even more so they can hire more help to review the assessments.
