Farmers press arbitration as county shifts to fair market values

About 14,303 property owners contend assessments are too high, while the tax digest and millage rate adjustments are prepared for the next Dec. 12 meeting. Public utilities remain exempt from revaluations, potentially shifting tax burden to private property owners.
