Q: Where does Sun City Property Assessment Council get all of its information?
A: The Sun City Property Assessment Council, SunCPAC, gets its information from the township and county assessors’ websites. The Model Reports contain only data released by the assessors. It is formatted in a way helpful to Sun City residents in making comparisons to similar models and decisions about the need to appeal.
Q: Why does SunCPAC not deal with issues?
A: SunCPAC is chartered only to provide information derived from official sources. If it were to become an advocate of issues, it would lose its creditability as an impartial reporter of assessment data. Issues need to have specific groups formed to focus on them. SunCPAC needs to preserve its “reporter” status.
