Damn straight. Plus it was appraised two years ago for ****ing THOUSANDS of dollars less than they are saying.

I attended the appeals workshop last night where they were expecting about 100 people. There were 1100 of us there. The place was packed to the rafters. I had one property that jumped from 1000 to 3000 in tax, after I had just appealed it 2 years ago, paid for an appraisal and won my appeal.
Another property jumped 700%! You read that right. I appealed and won that last time, as well. The county doesn't even bother to look at their previous lost appeals cases before trying the same thing again. And they obviously don't bother with doing an in-person evaluation of those properties.
Any increase of more than 14.9% requires that in-person assessment, but they don't seem to be bothering with that. I highly recommend attending one of the remaining meetings on this matter if you want to know how widespread and egregious this problem is.
File your informal appeal, and maybe attend the next legislative meeting this Monday afternoon, at the downtown County Courthouse, where many of us will be showing up in protest.
