“Open Mike Wednesday”
Let’s Talk Property Taxes
Preliminary changes in property assessments were presented at the Open Membership Forum prior to the Association’s annual meeting.
Examples of residential increases: Des Moines – 10.63%; Windsor Heights – 10.79%; Ankeny – 6.38%. Other increases: multi-residential – 22%; industrial – 19.6%; commercial – 9.2%.
Unless property tax levies are reduced these increases will show up on August property tax bills. What are the alternatives?
The mike will be open for your reactions…
