Was told by the county that is what they do when you pay off your bond is raise the fee to the district
I think you were misled. The bond payments are collected by the county on your tax bill, but they don't go to the county. They go to the bank that holds the loan. The bond and real estate taxes are two separate things. The county doesn't care whether you pay off the bond in a lump sum or over 30 years.
