1 JoanneJohnsonNYUSThe Florida law is not what it seems! I have a friend that has lived there for 5 years. Her assessments have not gone up more that what is allowed - but her tax rates have! She was paying $1500.00 for taxes five years ago. This year her bill was over $5,000.00
2 EdwinKnoxKSUSI am the son of a elderly Alzheimer man who owns property in Chateaugay Lake. My family purchased this property when I was five years old (1959) and I have spent almost every summer there since with the rest of my family. Taxes have more than tripled and have become a great burden to my father and my family. Something must be done.
3 JohnBeauvaisNYUSIt is well past time for a change!
4 ElaineCosgroveNYUSI am a retired senior citizen and if taxes don't stop increasing I will be forced to sell my home, on the original family homestead which I had wanted to keep and give to my children and grandchildren.
5 ElaineCosgroveNYUSI am a retired senior citizen trying to keep my family homestead that has been in the family for many years. If taxes keep going up I will be forced to sell that which rightfully should go to my children and grandchildren.

21 WilliamKrebsNYUSTaxes should be capped on local, town, county, state as well as school and special taxing districts.
22 VirginiaAdamsNYUSNot only are taxes going up way too fast (unlike other states where there are caps) the data being used are inaccurate. [We know this from knowledge about our neighbors' properties.]When taxes are so high it is even more important to have accurate data. There should be an area wide re-checking of all data to correct mistakes and catch up with remodeling changes.
