Class action lawsuit filed over Jackson County assessments

https://www.kctv5.com/2023/06/25/cla...y-assessments/

Quote:
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - A new class action lawsuit challenges the quality of Jackson County’s property assessment. It calls into question if some increases are even legal considering some notices came in the mail after the June 15 deadline, as required by state statutes.

The filing asks a judge to step in and offer injunctive relief. It also calls for a jury trial.

The lawsuit was filed by attorney and developer Ken McClain on behalf of Trevor and Amanda Tilton of Odessa and two businesses.

The lawsuit is critical of the methodology used by Jackson County to reach new values. It argues the newly-built assessment system fails to include sufficient information and there’s a lack of physical inspections.

It points out assessments should consider current market conditions. It argues that didn’t happen when it came to commercial property.

The lawsuit claims Jackson County uniformly increased the value of every non-vacant commercial property with an improvement by 25%. And vacant commercial properties had an across-the-board increase of roughly 50%.

KCTV5 has heard from numerous homeowners who are shocked by the large increases in their assessments. Some question if they’ll be able to keep their homes. They also question if they can realistically sell when property tax assessments increase so much in one fell swoop.

There has been a 30% average increase in Jackson County. The Assessor’s Office argues homeowners are seeing large increases because Jackson County real estate has not been assessed with Fair Market Valuations (FMV) for a long time and building costs have increased.

The lawsuit is filed against Jackson County Executive Frank White, Assessor Gail McCann Beatty and other members of the Board of Equalization.

KCTV5 reached out to Jackson County’s public information officer for comment but we have not heard back yet.

He actually did but its a bad faith question you don't actually care to have the answer to.

Just because a bill exists does not make it good...if you can create a better bill you craft and vote for that one.

I'm just guessing here but I would say 40 percent or more of homeowners in Jackson county would be able to get senior property tax relief if it did pass.

The county legislators knows that it would take a big hit in taxes down the road if they passed it.

Jackson County: 50 percent of residents appealing property assessments not showing up for hearings

According to data from the Jackson County Board of Equalization, about half of the individuals who have appealed their property assessment are not showing up for their appointments.
Jackson County assessor Gail McCann Beatty said the county has been scheduling about 300 appeals a day.
Beatty said the county is working to complete as many appeals as possible before billing begins on October 13th.
"We are trying to get as many of them completed before we go down for billing," she said.

Why wouldn't you show up for the meeting to get your taxes lowered? That's just laziness and irresponsibility on the homeowners part.

You're right I just wanted to make fun of the people's champ! I'm sure he means a lot to you though.

My guess would be... they're missing the email notifying them of their appointment.

One month isn't much time for Jackson County to fix this problem its the government, remember? This is hilarious.

State commission orders Jackson County to correct property value assessment

Jackson County is on the clock. It has 30 days to correct an untold number of property value assessments or they’ll be thrown out.

The order filed late Wednesday from the State Tax Commission cite multiple errors in the assessment process, which led to higher tax bills for thousands of people across the county.

The commission says the county did not physically inspect some properties. Those inspections are required when valuations increase 15%.

The order says the county did not notify property owners whose valuations went up that much and then made it hard, and in some cases, impossible for people to appeal their assessments.

Jackson County Executive Frank White Jr. is slamming the order, claiming it is both inaccurate and dangerously politicized.

This is great. I just received an offer today from the county to reduce my 2023 assessment figure to a much more reasonable number but it was still over 15%. Looks like I might need to take a few days (more than 30) to consider their offer.
