Most of these propositions will help bring continuity across the entire state in the way appraisals are handled.  It will be good for all Texas property owners to know that the way their county handles property value and taxation is the same as every other county in Texas.  One of the biggest reasons why continuity is important: State funding for public schools is based on the taxable property in each school district. 

November 3, 2009, mark the date.  Make time.  Vote!
