The neighbor called early today, he'd just got his property taxes for up here :shocked: & he wanted to know what ours looked like. Ours were worse :doah: as it's been in the family so long there's been no new valuation done, they just got theirs from her parents. Seen yours yet?

Ours keeps going up. Not sure what the valuation went up but the taxes went up $146.00 oner last year's tax, pretty sure it has alot to do with the new big shed.

Nothing else has been done to the place in years!

The valuation here went up almost 70%, not sure what the taxes went up. We heard it has more to do with the new jail in GR, plus there's a bond issue. Sounds like there's quite few unhappy people about it around here.

Estimated Market Values have gone up quite a bit. Mine and some of my Itasca County neighbors’ EMV took some significant jumps. Also property I own in Anoka County and my sister’s property in Anoka County went up significantly. I think it’s mostly because of the increases in prices of homes all over.  Not sure what the effect will be on the actual taxes due in 2023.

I’m in Hubbard co. I just received my proposed tax statement today. My home increased in market value $100000.00, my farm increased $60000.00. No improvements, Unbelievable!

Used them a few times for some charter fishing when Dad was in the wheelchair. Looked to be a pretty big family run operation to me, super nice people too. :sad:

Had someone asking about ice out on Nextdoor in the last day or so & he had 3 people respond.  They all said they had 4-6" of new snow on Sunday & that there was still 25-30" of good ice on the lake. :evil: At least 2 of 'em had been on the ice last weekend & 1 said it's quite possible that there will be ice yet on the Opener. :rolleyes: One poster was from up by Max & the other 2 are on the east side of the mouth of the river.

 :scratch: Somewhere between Hill City & GR we started seeing snow. Mainly in the west & north facing ditches but there was quite a bit back in the woods in some of those spots too. We have some snow in the yard yet where we plowed or it's shaded but I suspect a good share of that will disappear today. There was no snow out on the bay but it looks more like a swimmin pool today. The ditches between Aitkin & Hill City were full of water yday too. The dam at the papermill was rollin yday & I don't think I've ever seen much more water below that dam than there was when we went by. No sign of your DNR buddies ;) :rolleyes: :smiley: yet over at Little Cutfoot where they normally take spawn either. There is a small area on the north side of our shoreline & the bullrush bed is thicker that has a little open water.

Still some standing water here so I'm not sure the frost has gone out yet. :scratch: Probably getting close though as the puddles are getting smaller. Some green grass in the sunny spots starting to show too. It doesn't sound like this week's weather will be a lot of help though. :pouty:
