[quote=flu]You’re missing the entire point. Where is the state going to come up with the money to build this “system”. Hello???? We’re in the red, which budget is this going to come from?[/quote]
The work on the new system is apparently already underway. I have no idea where the money came from to build it.
[quote=flu]You really underestimate how flawed this thing is. This took 2 minutes. Not that hard when things are online and in html…

I would venture that only a miniscule portion of taxpayers are as talented as you in this regard, flu – that is, the ones that are doing their own tax returns :=}
Just try to find a legitimate tax-preparer that will use your “doctored” tax bills.
[quote=flu]Also, I’m curious how the CA state systems are going to deal with all the different ways that each county’s assessment forms look. After all, the property tax forms are nowhere near standardized…exposing yet a bunch more technical issues….[/quote]
This is a very good question, flu. However, bear in mind that each state has different income tax forms as well and the IRS seems to successfully scan and read each state’s electronic tax-return filing just fine :=)
Don’t you think the same success could be achieved with a CA “assessor-reporting-provision” in the law?
