Indiana fireworks: Property Tax Bill

For the first time, homeowners will discover just how much they pay in property taxes to support an incompetent Fort Wayne local government. Thank Governor Mitch Daniel.

This is how Allen County local government, in the morning newspaper. attempts to spin the burden by telling folks just to ignore what they see, because the image is really not a true indicator of the increase in their property taxes according to Deputy Treasurer Sue Orth:

"She also warned that one of the columns on the comparison statement is misleading. A chart on the bottom of the statement shows the difference in how much the property owner paid each taxing unit in 2007 and in 2008.

A column in that chart lists percentages, but the numbers don’t reflect the change between what they paid, Orth said."

Maria Parra might want to check out those books.
