What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Wilmington City Councilwoman Christian Willauer filed a complaint with New Castle County regarding property assessment inequities in the Hilltop, Tilton, and West City Center neighborhoods. The councilwoman stated that homes sold in these areas between January 1, 2022, and January 30, 2024, sold for less than their most recent assessed value. The complaint is not legal in nature but cites Delaware code requiring property to be assessed at its fair market value.
