He wondered why the huge discrepancy?
Address is #53 Kingston Row.

Hey now, I live on Kingston Row, don't give them any idea's to raise my fn taxes more. God when I bought this house it was worth $70K this was the mid 90's, and that was on the high end for here, and now it has ballooned to $450K in their books. House right beside me, just a flat, but it was $33K back then, it sold for the 4th time in 5 years for $350K.
But what makes me bitter, is the amount of taxes I pay, and the lack of any street services, they have YET to clean are side walks all winter, even with 4 calls now to 311. I clean my own all the time, but the older folks cannot.
