You should know where every single cent of your tax bill is going and which authority is responsible.
I built CivicLookup for this.
The burden of proof for an appeal should rest on the county, not you, as long as you have made a good-faith effort to justify the discrepancy.
Appraisers must show their work so you are not left to reverse-engineer a black box alone. Any person, regardless of appraisal experience, should be able to understand the entire process that led to a property's valuation.
Fraud, waste, or abuse should be assumed until proven otherwise whenever anyone cannot easily follow the money.
Open the books and show the work so taxpayers can verify the record themselves. Mistakes happen, but opacity is what fails the test.
