Mr. Brown stated that there has been hard work done over the past four years at the legislature to try and come up with an equitable method of taking care of the fact that the assessed valuation of the power plants went down by a significant amount with the proposed deregulation and that three bills were passed over the past several years to try and fix it, coming up with the Backfill that supposedly held most of the tax entities harmless over the last two years but then the Backfill went away for this year we are going into. Mr. Brown continued by saying that theoretically, the increase in assessed valuation that was set last session was to bring everyone back up to where we were three or four years ago but that it did not quite have that affect, but we were able to hold the county tax rate the same as last year, and the homeowners assessed values went down. Mr. Brown provided an overview and breakdown of the reductions that the homeowners will see in their tax rate within the southern communities.
