Well, I received my notice for this years property taxes. I am dumbfounded to see that my taxes have risen almost 500 per year. I am happy to say that I now pay the highest taxes on my street. I feel their is no reason for such a huge increase in taxes. Our snow removal on my street is horrible. They shut down all the schools in the Hart. So why am I paying so much more? I am sure I am not the only one who was hit with higher taxes to this extent. Last year's assessment was $313,000. I fought it and they admitted to have some misleading information and dropped it by $10,000. This year they kicked it back up to $332,000. What a kick. They claimed because houses sold in the neighborhood for over 300k. Wel,l city of P.G., since you feel my house is worth $332,000 assessed value and rule of thumb is sell for 20 per cent above that. Want to buy my house for a deal at $370,000, over 20k off what you feel its worth. Election time will be interesting, Dan Rogers in my opinion will be out the door. Nice Job.
