    PROPERTY TAX - Must Read

    to clarify i wasnt talking about limiting increases. sorry to confuse i was talking more of a cap on a single payimg individual or property. whats fair 2k a year?.... 4k? 10k? if a property is taxed at 3500 a year that is 105k that a family will pay over the course of a 30 year mortgage...... im...

    PROPERTY TAX - Must Read

    imo most here realize some form of property tax is the best solution at the moment. the problem most everyone has is the escalation and sometimes rediculously drastic increases on a year to year basis. there needs to be a more static approach so property owners do not become burdened by runaway...

    PROPERTY TAX - Must Read

    so in a land with supposed freedom we our confined by being successful? on a piece of property you own you are expected to pay rent based on how big and how much if it you have? so basically we arent very free after all. i get we need to pay for things through taxes and i an definately for taxes...

    PROPERTY TAX - Must Read

    if a contractor walked into a home and said "this guy has money. im going to charge more" and then walk down the road and do the exact same work elsewhere for less wouldnt that be considered shady and bad business practice? how does it make it ok for government? afterall we are getting the same...

    PROPERTY TAX - Must Read

    the last few comments are exactly what i mean. the majority of valuations are set below market value. is it possibly so they have a trump card against complaints? how many complaints does it deter? nobody is going to go in to complain only to have someone point out your assessment is lower than...

    no offense allen, but what does that really matter? they could set it at 20% and all theyd do is jack the mill levy up to get their final number. they know what they want so they tweek one side or the other. one year its appraises value the next its mills. then they take turns bragging about not...

    Honkers

    thats possible but it may become a chicken or the egg type of argument..... at any rate its like a runaway truck now.... birds harder to kill-loosen restrictions add more pressure...... birds become harder to kill again- loosen regs increase pressure.... rinse and repeat but it doesnt reduce the...

    Honkers

    ifish i understand your beliefs but imho there are valid counter points to all your points. 1. there are generally plenty of birds all winter long on mild years. should we hunt them in march too because there are still 100k on the river? 2. the guys that work shift work hunt wednesdays if late...

    Honkers

    because guides would start tying things up. not alot of incentive to hunt if there is uncertainty of flight times. ill take the modest 3 days a week over nothing at all. plus the late birds would get wise like the early flight birds do towards years end. less pressured less hunted afternoon...

    Property Tax Increase

    im not dissagreeing with you allen..... just letting the other foot hit the ground too. i not against taxes or prorperty taxes but our leaders got carried away with spending. now its coming back on the property owners.

    Property Tax Increase

    and on the flip side allen, property owners shouldnt be taxed to build infrustructure that is "needed" because of the oil..... roads, police, new schools wouldnt be needed if we didnt have an oil boom..... last i checked no other industry had brought as big of strain on the resources in this...

    Property Tax Increase

    thats fair enough. its easier to see into the past than into the future. maybe a better way going forward is using a formula that is based off of lower than expected revenue forecasts and cutting that in half lol. id rather them miss low than high and have to give an excuse of "unforseen"...

    Property Tax Increase

    ive done well on paper so far thanks for asking.... until i hit the sell button its not realized value yet, but i did see a correction coming and held off the urge to buy "hot" oil stocks when the gettin was good. most of my securities were bought when oil was below 40. bought and sold a few...

    Property Tax Increase

    im venturing a guess most here understand and accept some property tax as a nessecary evil. but at what point are they going to the same ol well too much? so in good fiscal years our taxes go up because of valuation... but in bad years it goes up because at least one of the politcal subdivisions...
