Was I reading this right? After all this talk about lowering our property taxes, I read that the Hamilton School District wants to try another bond to raise money for another school. It says taxes will increase on a home with a market value of $100,000 by approximately $134-$148 a year and a home with a market value of $200,000 by $268-$296 a year!
First off, whose house is valued that low anymore? Second, how’s that going to reduce my property taxes?
Hamilton is becoming an older community with many people like myself on a fixed income. My cost of living increase doesn’t even come close to covering those tax increases! What’s up with that?
