WHAT IS IT
ALERT: #229
DATE: February 3, 2009
TO: Incline Village & Crystal Bay Property Owners
FROM: Village League Tax Revolt Committee
Dear Incline Village & Crystal Bay Property Taxpayers,
All of us received or will receive a “junk mail” type communication from Washoe County District Attorney Richard Gammick. Not only did it not specify why you were included in this mass mailing, the text size was nearly impossible to read without a magnifying glass.
If you did not receive one of these communications and want to read one, click on the following link:
This letter appears to be just another attempt by Washoe County to delay and avoid having to return the excess taxes collected in 2006 for approximately 9000 residential property owners in Incline Village and Crystal Bay
It seems that Richard Gammick, the Washoe County District Attorney, is attempting to delay the repayment of taxpayers at least until after the fall elections. (In case you were unaware, Mr. Gammick is running for re-election.)
WHAT SHOULD WE DO
We are amazed at the District Attorney and the County Commissioners’ disregard for the courts, abuse of the rights of taxpaying citizens and their willingness to create a nationally recognized spectacle of our County and our State. These tactics are costing the County millions of dollars per year, just in interest and legal expenses.
Appropriate measures are being taken to defend against the outrageous strategies of Washoe County.
To get an informed perspective on the whole property tax situation, you can read the reports of the NPRI investigative reporting project at:
You can call the office of Richard Gammick, the Washoe County District Attorney at 775-328-3220; and email John Breternitz, our Washoe County Commissioner at john@breternitz.org if you would like to share your thoughts. Other County Commissioners might also be interested in hearing from you.
We are hopeful that the court will see through this latest tactic and immediately reject it. We will continue to report on legal developments in future Alerts.
Stay tuned.
Sincerely,
Maryanne Ingemanson
