I live in the city limits and in a subdivision that does not allow RV parking on your lot. So years ago I built a shop in the county and the MH lives there. The MH was addressed at the shop and I paid county taxes and no city taxes. Sounded fair. Now, the city says I owe city and county taxes since my residence is in the city. My beef is that it lives in the county, if it catches on fire I call the county fire dept, if someone breaks into it I call the county deputy, when I dump the waste tanks it goes into my septic tank, there is no legal designated RV parking spot anywhere in the city limits. So I have no choice but to pay the $2200 tax bill on a 6 year old MH. Sounds unfair to me...I am beginning to support those Montana MHs more and more....

I know in Virginia, it goes by the county the motorhome is garaged/parked at -Gramps- would know about that...Couldn't you send the city a picture of your out of city garage that you own and state that the motorhome cannot be garaged nor stored in the city due to the subdivision ordinance. I just got my renewal on my motorhome and I do indeed feel your pain. I apologize if you already did this but I just wouldn't go down without a fight..

I think you have a valid claim to contest this.Well, I think you do...Pat

I am not a lawyer, but I do agree with your, and I would get with someone, preferably a lawyer, who could give you the correct advise.

how is this different from residing in one state and owning a house/property in another state? surely your resident state can't charge property tax on that out of state house?bumpy

The property where the RV is located is separate and apart from your residence ?Shop ? Is that a RV port or garage ? Water / power / also with your septic at the RV location ?

Can't see how this relates to Uncle Sam. This is a local tax issue.
