The Letter | | I knew it was coming. I prepared myself for its arrival. Yet when it
came it was a bit of a shock. I remember reading the letter, “Since new
appraisals have been made to reflect current market values, the tax
rate required to raise the necessary revenue to support next year's
county, school and municipal budgets will be SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCED.
Therefore, an increase in your assessment DOES NOT necessarily mean an
increase in your tax bill.” I actually took some comfort in the
expectation that the tax rate would be adjusted. As promised, our
assessment went up, and the tax rate went down. But it didn't go down
enough. I guess I forgot about the inability of government to exercise
fiscal restraint.

Revals: They put a crack in our nest egg | | Property
revaluation. I heard about it first when the town of Rutherford began
to discuss it. My reaction: I’m glad I don’t live in Rutherford. But
then, the “mandatory” revaluation came to Lyndhurst as well. And it hit
our budget hard. How hard? Let's just say the retirement nest egg now
has a big crack in it!

Planning to file a tax appeal? Me too! | Want to file a tax appeal? Well, so do I! Follow me as I go I through the process ... updates will added during the week....
I took the first step toward the tax appeal today by visiting the County Tax Board's Web site www.co.bergen.nj.us/taxboard/index.html They have a handy dandy link describing the process: www.co.bergen.nj.us/taxboard/appeal.html. I read the page in about 5 minutes, but I will need to go back and spend more time to fully digest the material.
