Argh, I agree Visser should have the right to appeal, but before his own board?? Come on!! It would also be different if Visser were actually arguing on the basis of sales in his area to prove his point that his neighborhood is an area of blight. Instead he is an angry old crooked man who holds a key position in community government that is using his position to bully his way into getting favorable treatment. And don’t be confused, if his or anyone else’s assessment is lowered the government agencies are not getting any less money, instead it is all those who didn’t get those reductions that get to pay more toward the proportion of taxes collected by those agencies. Basically those who do not complain get to pay for those who do.

The problem with the apartments is not the county, but the city. Boise in particular seems to want density and more density without consideration of parking, because in their narrow little north/east end minds we all ride bikes!! Tell me how the city develops on the 1.8 car basis? And what kind of cars are they, not the kind most drive. Just take a look at downtown garages, where you have trucks and crossovers sticking out into the driving lanes and over the parking spot lines left and right.

Editor this class action guy posts crap everywhere else on the internet too. Nonsensical most of the time and seems to think it’s the solution to any and every problem. Perhaps he has not noticed when a class action suit is settled for millions everyone is sent a check for $3. Plus can’t sue city hall when your lawyer is sipping wine with the mayor.

As for the hot potato story. Visser should be able to get an adjustment if appropriate just like everyone else.

My biggest problem with the county is they think each apartment unit only needs parking for one car when in reality it’s about 4 cars per unit. Renters blow money on cars, that’s why they have to rent… and all their friends flop on the couch. Apartment complexes should also be assessed a fee for additional police services, as should Walmart.

Since the Treasure Valley Politicians, specifically Dave Beiter, are the ones who have caused the dramatic rise in property values, how about a Class Action lawsuit against them. Sue the Politicians and their big donors for the increase in property taxes. If the Politicians want “growth” so badly, let them and their corporate masters pay for it.

Visser is as crooked as they come. Run ins with fish and game, his support for legislation that would require less public notice about public meetings (http://www.spokesman.com/blogs/boise/2018/mar/01/house-panel-rejects-bill-end-requirement-agencies-publish-notices-let-them-just-post-their-own-websites-instead/) AND his latest flub during the County budget deliberations in which he violated open meeting laws by threatening to change his vote on a budget item if he didn’t get what he wanted over an after hours email rather than discussing it in the open meeting. This property tax issue is another great example of Visser acting above the law.
