I have just completed a detailed investigation of all the CUVA parcels that fronted on the Ga. 400 from Route 60 to the county line in 2012. Can we all assume that all these parcels will be developed as commercial, industrial or subdi- visions at some point in the future? I identifi ed the parcels by looking at the Tax Assessor’s map and then I got the values for FMV and CUV for each parcel from the Offi cial 2012 Tax Digest fi led by the Tax Commissioner with the State. The Tax Commissioner graciously provided me with this list. Hold onto your hats as you read this. All of this informa- tion comes from open public records. In 2012, seven parcels of 208 acres were in CUVA fronting on the Ga. 400. Numbers are rounded.

How can CUV be so incredibly low? Could this be the reason that the CUV is a secret? Would the people rise up in indigna- tion if they knew that this was going on? Remember that land fronting on the Ga. 400 is basically waiting to be developed. The Tax Assessor is pricing it ac- cp91113b cordingly. But consider this. CUVA is a tax exemption and all &URZQ0RXQWDLQ3ODFH‡'DKORQHJD*$ rw91113b tax exemptions are considered to be “tax shifting” in nature. A “tax shift” shifts the tax burden from one group of tax pay- ers to another. In this case, these “developers” are shifting their taxes onto YOU (if you are not in CUVA). AND THIS IS A MASSIVE SHIFT! If this land were not in CUVA it would have generated $46,374 in county taxes in 2012. Instead, in CUVA, it generated only $725! Yes, I said only $725. Who made up for this tax loss of $45,649? Well here is what actually happened. Suppose all of Subscribe this land had been subject to non-CUVA taxes in 2011 and then all the land was suddenly put in the CUVA program in 2012. This sudden action would cause the tax base of the county to today! shrink by $8,764,488 and county tax collections to shrink by $45,649! At that point the county commission would have to
