Property Tax Reform in Wyoming goes viral
09/17/2009 Many people especially in western Wyoming have seen 100% property tax hikes in the last few years. Do to the long term fear of uncontroled taxes a website called www.WyomingProp13.com is here to help prevent unrestricted property tax increases.
The term prop 13 is not a Wyoming proposition or initiative, it is the 1979 peoples vote in California to restrict the increase of property taxes after the purchase of a property. So when you purchase a home you are assesed based on the purchase price, and your taxes dont go up while you own the property, or there is a 1% limit on the increase.
Wyoming is seeing overwhelming property tax increases over the last few years, and fear of giving your county a blank check each year scares many people in Wyoming.
There are people in California that now say the reason the state of California is bankrupt is because of Prop 13, but few people with this view look at overspending to be the cause?
Another related issue is the federal spending and the fear that the federal government will try and ad a federal property tax.
The website www.wyomingprop13.com is a social network designed to unit the people of Wyoming to show our House and Senate members, that now is the time to save our residents from future overspending by the state and counties of Wyoming
