Baldwin Co. property taxes take a dip | Fox10tv.com

Baldwin Co. property taxes take a dip | Fox10tv.com: "BALDWIN COUNTY, Ala. - Baldwin County property owners are breathing a collective sigh of relief. Last year, appraisals were raised, leading many people to contest the amounts. But this year, appraisals will be down eight percent.

That cheaper tax bill is something David Donnell doesn't mind hearing.

'That's a fantastic benefit, that really is, we need it,' said Donnell.

He owns property near Gulf Shores. County leaders say that's where the greatest decreases will be. The tax appraisals could go down as much as 22 percent."
