Look at your property tax assessment for 2015. It's available online at the Assessor's section of the county website.  http://www.dearborncounty.org/department/index.php?structureid=14 
Then scroll down to Property GIS search. You can also use the property tax estimator after you search for your assessment. 

The stakeholders who were on the advisory committee were the county employees or officials whose offices were in the Courthouse and slated to move to the newer spaces. Regular taxpaying citizens were not given a voice on nor view of this project until the design was finished and presented at the Nov Council meeting. Council tabled it for review. Now do you think you should go to the Jan 13th meeting? Or call or email your Council members?
