But a general rise in assessments of 11 percent does not shift or increase the taxes.
You had to have a property assessed at more than the general 11 percent, an increase in the budget, or a fall off of secondary revenue.
Maybe all three.
Loss of secondary revenue is usually - but not always - due to the State or federal government cutting out transfer payments.
An increase in the budget should be public knowledge.
And an increase of certain properties beyond the 11% general should be the norm based on market desire.
