i don't really understand why the two are linked together.
if it costs so much for the county to operate, than just because the value of land goes way up doesn't mean it all of a sudden costs more to operate.
example, running a garbage truck in an area that a house costs 20K. now the houses are worth 40k one day, does that mean it costs more to operate the garbage truck?
i use to live in south florida where the property values and taxes skyrocketed, yet all i heard more and more is how broke the country was. my house payment went from 750 a month to over 1100 a month in less than 3 years, though i wanted to live there, i couldn't afford it.
why do they do that?
i would think they would sit down, see how money is required and then tax from there.
