PROPERTY TAX PROTESTS DOWN BY 20 PERCENT

Just got a call from the street: an informed property tax protester says it was quite crowded today (the deadline) at the Dallas County Appraisal District office on Stemmons Freeway. Even considering that line of procrastinators, the number of objectors (either by mail or in person) is down by 20 percent compared to last year. More equitable appraisals? Judging by mine, I don’t think so, but you’ve got to wonder. More to come.
