We can only imagine how much lower it could’ve been had not the impact fees increase that the commissioners voted in went through.if it wasn’t for the developers politically connected politicians that nix it our taxes this year would have been much lower.

Just saying😊
Help!!!
My wife and I recently bought into TV in late-2021 and are in the process of becoming Florida citizens. However, because we did not have time to apply for Homestead protection late last year, the assessed valuation of our home was increased by 34%, rather than the 3% cap provided by Homestead protection. The Tax Assessor seemed to take advantage of this brief lack of coverage in late-2021 to sock it to us.
Is anyone aware of any options we might have to contest this huge increase?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
