Do you feel your property tax assessment is fair? Do you understand how the process works? Maybe more importantly, if you want to challenge your assessment, do you know how to do it? Our guest is Paychex founder and local philanthropist Tom Golisano. He's back to talk about his efforts to make the system -- in his words -- more fair for property owners. He says right now, it's too difficult to challenge your assessment. He says the process is inconsistent, often opaque, there's too little time to make challenges, and it rarely works out for the property owner. Golisano has launched a new website called "Tax My Property Fairly" to help property owners, and he's calling for systematic change. We discuss his efforts and the property tax assessment process.
