Hi Mary,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I’ll talk with the Finance Director on Monday and get
back with you, and the Commission, with an explanation.
Thanks again,

Dear City Manager, Mayor, Deputy Mayor and City Commissioners,Tonight I received two separate Special Assessment Tax Bills in the mail. The differencebetween the two bills was the amount of interest charged for the first half of the assessment. It seems that this is an error. If this has happened to many taxpayers, it seems an expensive error for the city to make. Itneeds some explanation, please and thank youSincerely,Lawrence Dowdin and Mary Bateson, 427 N Tracy Ave. (only one address for us!)
