How about RASINING your taxes by 85%.
Then you come up with what you should be paying in taxes IF you
actually paid your fair share of school taxes.
Take a guy whose home is only assessed at 223,000 (but paid more then
twice that). They pay around $9600 in taxes.
Imagine paying a fair share of school tax.
So BEFORE you agree tp a 5% hike in your taxes, realize:
1)Your property is under assessed (sure, the rate will change, but
never, never equal. There is always a bump).
2)MOST ALL the taxes you pay today are spent by the municipality.
ZIPPO school taxes (for arguments sake).
3)ONLY 1.5% of the current tax roll is assessed OVER 150,000. I use
current, because the condos have yet to hit the county tax roll.
5% today of $150,000 will be 5% hike in 2010, when "the average home
is assessed at $300k.....think. 5% today might be 1/2 tank gas today
in your tank. in 2010, it might be a hot dog on the boardwalk.
