Johnson officials warn letters mislead on property taxes
Iowa City Johnson County officials say state mandated letters use a 10 percent assessed value rise, though actual increases are 0.4 to 1.2 percent by property type. Auditors offer online tools and phone help to explain expected raises of 5.4 to 7.1 percent, not 15 to 18 percent feared. Public hearings set for March 25 to 26 on levy proposals.
