Gotcha. Thanks for the clear explanation.

Bottom line is you are of course correct my county taxes did increase by 25% (~$125) which is 1 mid-priced ticket at Sharon Center when it was opened. I can live with it and after NJ it's a bargain as we had a $3000 increase 1 year (2015). Of course no one likes taxes going up but for $125 I won't "make a federal case" out of it (but they better finish paving Morse at O'Dell Circle by Mallory CC for my $125!).
