The town councilors are very seriously working on a solution collect more revenue. I fear that if the general public doesn't input their concerns in a timely and logical fashion that we will all get huge, across the board assessments which will still not have any rhyme or reason - and also I feel that some people will end up exempted or assessed at different levels.

The town has begun gathering its own data to help find true value assessments. Transfers of land are matters of public record and the values paid are recorded in Belmopan and stamp duty (transfer tax) is paid on these title and stock share transfers.

Although tax hikes are unpopular, sometimes they are necessary. But the way they are assessed and implemented may not be logical, so any input will be helpful.
