[QUOTE="Wirehair, post: 423024, member: 769"] If you have not caught the Burleigh County commission meeting from 9/4/24 it is worth watching. Burleigh County commissioners stated they were surprised when tax estimate statements were mailed out and citizens called to complain about increased county taxes as the Commission had earlier stated that they were going to hold the line on 2025 budget. Their explanation was that the State decreased the value (tax amount) on wind farms and ag land across the state. Think about this!! I was a bit suspicious so I contacted a legislator and sure enough it is fact. ND legislature has had 12 years to fix the inequities in real estate taxes (eliminate all of the exemptions they have created) and then have done nothing to effect change. Throwing money at an issue is not the same as attempting a fix. Will be voting yes on measure 4 as 12 years of inaction is long enough. Below is the link and tax discussion starts at the 4 minute mark. [URL]https://dakotamediaaccess.net/CablecastPublicSite/show/10465?site=2[/URL] [/QUOTE]
