property assessment

The decision keeps post-reassessment values in place, which put more of the tax burden on residential property owners.

The resolution failed to pass and intended to formally ask the Auditor to look into reassessment methodologies.

Last year, Christina saw 150 appeals. Post-reassessment, it has a thousand.

The Board also voted to increase non-residential property tax burden to 19%.

Red Clay residents’ tax burden jumped 8.7% after the reassessment.

The Board put a 7 percent tax rate hike in place after the reassessment.

Board members originally approved a 1.7 percent hike to offset a loss of $1.2 million in federal funding. They walked back on that decision at Monday's meeting.

Council members passed an ordinance to develop a payment plan for residents.

It was the county’s first reassessment in 40 years.

While the process was revenue neutral for the county, residents could see increases or decreases in their property tax.
