they are actually working against
the local tradition of keeping land reappraisals from remaining
revenue neutral. our old way of doing was to adjust the tax rate so
the increased property value did not actually produce a tax increase.
the home or land might increase by 10% for tax value on reappraisal
but then the rate was lowered by the required amount so as to keep
the amount of tax owed the same as before the reappraisal.


That's bull****. It would be horrible policy even if
it were true, but it isn't true - it's bull****.
