Here’s his remarks on Amendment One and Two:
Amendment 1 (Property Tax Cut)-YES
Placed on the ballot by the Florida Legislature.
Amendment 1 will give homesteaded home owners a third $25,000 exemption on a home’s assessed value between $100,000 and $125,000. I always support taxpayers keeping more of their hard-earned money.
Amendment 2 (Property Tax Cut)-YES
Placed on the ballot by the Florida Legislature.
Amendment 2 will make permanent a cap on non-homesteaded increases in assessed value at no more than 10 percent a year. Before 2008, non-homesteaded property, such as second homes and commercial property were seeing 30 percent to 80 percent hikes in their assessed value. Amendment 2 will offer some protection from run away property taxes.
