Re-evaluations are always controversial, but the towns around here (southern Cayuga county) have been doing them. It's been a few years for us, but we're still fairly close to 100%. We still have town appointed/hired assessors. They work at the pleasure of the town board, which doesn't want to address any of it. I'm not a fan of bigger government, but I think our county would be better served to consolidate assessment to the county level, where an office and a telephone would allow for access. Assessors here, and apparently everywhere, think their job is to jack prices way up. Fortunately, once our assessor has been slapped down (on a specific parcel) by the review board, it stays that way. So far. This is all so annoying as property tax is a horse and buggy era tax. Property ownership is not the best indicator of wealth that it once was. I would like to see the tax structure change, but we've been going down this path for so long, I can't imagine the catastrophe it would take to change it.

It was considered a pretty nice outfit for their 70 acre central Indiana grain and livestock farm. Dad spent several years during the war testing aircraft engines at Allison Engineering in Indianapolis working seven days a week on a twelve hour night sh
