On the latest episode of the Conduit Street Podcast, Kevin Kinnally and Michael Sanderson walk through the nuts and bolts of the rapidly approaching 2021 Session of the Maryland General Assembly, clarify what the recent rise in property tax assessments actually means for local governments and Maryland residents alike, and discuss why a proposal to extend the timeframe between property assessments could pressure counties to raise tax rates in order to keep pace with spending for education, public health, public safety, roadway maintenance, and other essential services.
