    Wait till you find out not only have they not been increasing the tax rate but they also use property values from 8 years ago.

        Can you explain how that has no impact on the total amount collected.

        If the tax is a percentage of property value and the property is being intentionally under valued then if they were assessed at their current value after 8 years of growth would that not increase total amount collected?

        Property tax in general disincentivises improving properties. We should really switch to a land value tax
