Can you believe this? MT Property values rise 55 percent in reappraisal

upon buying my rented home last year, the value put on the property by the appraisel was $10,000.00 less than the tax bill. i went to the tax office and spoke to the tax guy about it. Apparently, the taxes on homes is figured on a state approved scale, though it is different for different counties, but always gains in value for obvious governmental reasons. The tax guy (city appraiser) agreed to lower the tax cited value for me since he had been in the home i bought and knew that even the appraisal was bogus and at least $10,000.00 more than the home is really worth which, by the way, i did not need for loan purposes as i was putting 15,000.00 down to begin with. This lowering of said taxes was to expire in 1 year, in other words, he gave me one year to improve my property to the point where it would actually be worth what they-the tax ascesser- claimed the home to be worth. Further, the proposal on the ballet, Question 1 (which i vehemently opposed and begged my ENTIRE city to oppose as well but it passed anyway) will put an end to my town ascessor and instead be replaced with one single ascessor for the entire county. Ultimately, the rest of the plan is to replace elections of city officers INCLUDING THE SHERRIFF with that of an appointment of officers selected by the Governors office. What does that tell you people? Further, our criminal Governor was re-elected even though his criminalist activities were brought out AND we had some really great Independents running against him. Apparently noone cares. By the way, that same criminal Governor promised an end to property tax which has only escalated. This all done by your left over, bush administration, enron connected MITCH DANIELS. There, I feel a little better now.
I 'm going to meditate now and remember who i really am!!
