Quadrennial Property Tax Reappraisals
The Alabama Department of Revenue recently decided that a federal court ruling from several years ago mandated that property tax reappraisals be conducted on an annual, rather than a quadrennial basis. All 67 counties are currently phasing in annual reappraisals in order to comply. I believe that this clearly a tax increase without a vote of the people and therefore should be reversed as soon as possible. This legislation would mandate that property tax reappraisals may not occur more often than once every four years as has been the practice in Alabama for decades. The people and not courts should determine when taxes are going to be raised. |
