Properties are reassessed each year anyway. If you are homesteaded, there is a limit to how much the assessed value can increase because of the Save Our Homes law (about 3% or the CPI, whichever is lower). If you are homesteaded, the market value is not what your taxes are based on. They are based on the assessed value. Some of the 25% tax increase has been reduced the last 2 years. Also, the 25% increase was on the County Tax only, not the School Tax or the line items for fire and maintenance. The net effect was more like a total of about a 12% increase.

No, we are not aware of that tax increase. Our property tax was less than last year.

Thanks to the county investing in infrastructure that creates thousands of jobs and results in adding over two billion dollars of new homes each year to the tax base which keeps taxes low for all.

Yeah, if you say so. We don't think that deeply.

It is very interesting how much of a hornets' nest can be stirred up by someone citing a second hand account of something that "looks terrible." Here we are, on page 8 of commentary because of something the original poster hasn't actually seen. Amazing.

We will be paying for the repairs down south here sooner than later with all the people parking in the grass every day/night at Sawgrass Grove. There is plenty of parking in the parking lot. Drive by some evening and you will see the parking lot for golf carts is empty and the parking in the grass off the MM path in front of Sawgrass will be full. This is going to lead to grass replacement and repaving of the MM path as the edges of the path deteriorate. Don Wiley hit it right on the head in his last video as to the reason people are parking there. Keep up the great work Don.

Just noticed on much of Buena Vista there is no cement curbing. The grass is not growing over like a jungle and the side of the roadway seems to be in good shape. Just asking if this is really a big issue. I would guess that both Buena Vista and Morse Blvd both are much more traveled by vehicles than any MM path. Is this just another false issue for some to complain about like striping the MM path so people can see but they have no issue driving on streets that are not striped on the sides or striped at all in neighborhoods. The issue of grass growing over path in the picture is an issue that should be brought up to the landscaping crews.

My wife and I often walk around Hogeye Sink, which means we have to walk along that section of the MMP. We walk single file and facing oncoming golf cart traffic, and we get off the MMP when golf carts come along. That means we have to step over the hated concrete curb and, since my balance is not too good, I am always afraid of tripping on it. |

Since you are riding in a golf cart, you may not see the places where the concrete curbing is not exactly even with the blacktop. It doesn't take much of a difference to make me trip.
