Henry county included in taxing everything possible.One reason I seldom vote for same person second time around.
On serious note this morning: How many of you have pleasure or leisure tax in your counties ? Also how many of you feel it is wrong to be taxed on your boat? I know Houston County had a tax on tractors,boats and airplanes at one time and was ruled unconstitutional,so they had to stop,don't know if they started back up.I know for a fact Worth Co. my county, now has one on marine equip. cause I'm sitting here looking at it and just doesn't sit well with me.

i git a form to fill out every year . sent in the value of my boat . there isn`t enough value to tax. my daughter works for the tax accessories office said they don`t tax a boat that is in a low value .
Now the road tax on fuel . we pay that when we purchase fuels for our boats it is never run on land .. when you have to buy at a marina it is a lot more than the road fuel . when you buy fuel for tractors it has NO road tax . gas or diesel.

Baldwin County is the worst of taxes. Last year they went from the lowest value on my boats (all over 10 years old)to the highest book value to tax me. My property tax on the lake go up about $500 per year. I live in district #5 and we pay 3/4 of the taxes paid in the entire county. I found out you cannot beat city hall. We tried to organize and had a great county commissioner helping us. It did no good.
Yep, Houston County is back at it! I got my "request" in the mail earlier this year about a boat I don't own anymore and for the one I did own this year and looks like I have to claim both boats this year! I don't know the damage yet............

I propose a Golfers, Bowlers and and Jet ski Tax and drop the boat Tax! I feel like we all as boat owners are being singled out and made to pay a tax that that doesn't make good sense.
Live in Houston Co. Own a 2001 Ranger 617. Over $200.00 taxes last year!
I pay a county boat tax where I live and agree it's wrong.
