Property appraisals are a problem

Property appraisals are a problem

I own 3 vacation rental homes in Wimberley. I just looked online at the Hays County Appraisal Districts website showing that one home is going up 20% while the 2nd is going up 50% and the third 63%. I understand that values are going up. 20% is bad enough but 50% and 63% is theft. Is there no rhyme or reason nor a formula to figure out a common and consistent percentage in value ? 04/28/2022 12:00 AM

Concern continues on Woodcreek North development

Concern continues on Woodcreek North development

The letter to the editor from last week, April 14th, really spoke to many resident’s hearts. We are all very concerned about the projected growth in our beautiful, peaceful neighborhood. And the fire really put the fear of God in all of us. There are many more clear cut acres in Woodcreek North with atleast 8-10 inches of cedar mulch as far as the eye can see. It is another fire waiting to happen especially being in a severe drought and the burn ban which will go on for months. I have spoken to the local fire department and have been told there is really nothing they can do about forcing the developers to atleast remove the acres and acres of clear cut cedar. They own the land and we have no say in how they treat it. I must say, all the fire departments involved did an amazing job getting the fire out and monitoring it for days afterwards. Kudos to all of those brave men and women! 04/28/2022 12:00 AM
