Be heard

This is your Opportunity!  The state is holding public hearings and listening to citizen input about ways to improve the property tax system. See Senator Kelly Hancock's letter below.

Dear Friends,

Last fall, I was appointed to the interim Select Committee on Property Tax Reform and Relief by Lt. Governor Dan Patrick.

Our charge? To find meaningful property tax reform solutions that put Texas homeowners first.
Since the panel was announced, we've traveled the state holding public hearings and listening to citizen input about ways to improve the property tax system. That includes everything from simplifying the appraisal process to keeping more of taxpayers' hard-earned money in their own pockets.

On Wednesday, April 27th, the committee will meet here in North Texas, and I'd like to personally invite you to attend and share your story.

Senate Select Committee on Property Tax Reform & Relief
Wednesday, April 27, 2016 at 8:00 AM*
UT Arlington Campus
E.H. Hereford University Center, Rosebud Theatre
300 West First Street, Arlington

*Public testimony begins at 10:00 AM.
No RSVP required. General parking available in Lot 11.
Tarrant County residents in particular are feeling the strain with home valuations spiking through the roof. How is this issue impacting your family? What do you think should be done to fix it?

We hope to see you at the hearing. If you can't attend but would like to submit your comments to my office, please email me at kelly.hancock@senate.texas.gov. The more Tarrant County conservatives get involved in the policy-making process, the better!

Sincerely,

Kelly Hancock
