I called the Franklin county assessors office to verify that unused personal property is not assessed.
I received a call from the assessor a few minutes ago and he told me that unused personal property must be declared and taxes paid until disposed of or scraped. They kinda go by the honor system whereas they expect the person to declare the property without the county going through their belongings to assess the taxes. This will be interesting how it plays out because of the article in the Missourian miss-quoted the assessor about unused personal property not being assessed. The assessor himself said to me that he was miss-quoted by the Missourian. A bit of creative writing to say the least?
So will Ron Blum resign as Mayor? This means he has ran for Mayor 2 times while in violation of State Law 71.005. Nobody likes to pay taxes, but to say the city needs more tax money for schools ,fire, police , roads and sewer and then not pay your own taxes is B.S.
ReplyDeleteThat is why the reporting from the Missourian is not worth the paper it is printed on.
ReplyDeleteI thought you had to sign some kind of paper when you run for a municipal office that says you are not in violation of anything. So is that intent to defraud? This should be a news story of the big TV stations. You see all these small towns in the news for wrong doing. What else is he hiding?
ReplyDeleteMaybe the true reason for wanting the airport closed. It sure not for economic development like he claims.
