Would luv to see the actual number of year over year taxes that went up 25%. Not in total agreement with either side but there should be a happy medium. Development is going to happen, no matter where you are if there is a demand. Taxes are going to rise with development not go down. Need good information from all sides and not half truths.
Check 2018 to 2019, the taxes increased on the 2019 bill.

Give me any two addresses that did not increase 25%.


EDIT: No one said the check went up 25%. Property taxes went up 25% but not School Taxes, Maintenance, Fire Assessment, or Bond. Check the line that says "Sumter County," those are your property taxes and the millage rate for those went up 25% from 2018 to 2019.

Under a false flag.

Why is it that, when the Developer builds a District that includes roads, utilities, paths & tunnels, earthmoving, etc it is incorporated into a bond that is paid off by homeowners over a 30 year period . . . but in this case the road expansions and infrastructure for the growth must be paid off by all the residents with a 25% tax increase over a just couple of years to balance the budget?

Even if it is decided that the Developer would not be paying for significant infrastructure improvements this time around, why couldn't the County balance the budget by financing it with a bond and increase resident property tax 2% over 30 years instead of 25% right now? The roads and infrastructure are going to be used for 30 years (at least) so they should be paid for over that span.
