    My dad literally went to the city and argued against them raising the book value of his home, which would cause him to have to pay more in property tax.

    He won too.

    That loon.

      You certainly can argue about your property taxes and win concessions if you have a good reason. It’s not hard to do. You just need to get off your ass and attend the annual tax assessment meeting.

      It’s why that annual meeting exists.

        I had no idea that was a thing… Mainly because it’s never been relevant to me… At least, until recently.

        Thanks for the info.

      Did he go to city council chambers, or did he just vaguely go into the city itself and start arguing with people?

        I was not provided details as to what he did to argue it, or who he spoke to.

        … That being said, I don’t think it was the latter example you gave
