Allegheny County Elections, Rockey vs Innamorato - The Big Fight Over Reassessment

Should Allegheny County reassess your property?

It's become a hot button issue in the county executive race.

After backlash against the last assessment 11 years ago, the county executive candidates are divided.

On this episode of I Strenuously Object, our intrepid trio, led into battle by the Queen of Tax Appeals, Nicole Amick, argue the pros and cons of reassessment.

Topics discussed:

• What are the candidates' proposals?
• Do we need a reassessment?
• Does a reassessment automatically mean a tax increase?
• Why are millage rates going up?
• What is the homestead exemption and how could it help those on a fixed income?
• How has the Philadelphia plan worked and should it be applied in Allegheny County?
