There they go again with the fuzzy math. Rising property values mean that that home and property assessments rise. This enables taxes to rise without the rate changing. Citizens are smart enough to know that a “flat” tax rate doesn’t mean much if the bottom line (taxes payable) increases! There is relatively little impact from new properties added to the tax rolls — it’s a small annual portion of the total.
