Re: Property taxes

I get the point of the exemption, Tall, but I think the abuse has gotten out of hand...a few goats and a donkey? come on...And the rate needs to be raised to a more reasonable level like 15%, in my opinion.

Re: Property taxes

Re: HB1911 Com Substitute

That's why I think holding one's nose and voting for a democrat there is the only way out.
