Surveyor issues pond permits and wanted multiple "studies" conducted at my expense even though plan was drawn up by NRCS. Also would not give me an exemption for an open geothermal heating system due to water use even though the source of water was going to be an artesian well that dumps water on the surface anyway. Just hired a contractor from outside the county to put in a regular high efficiency heating system instead on the original contractor from within the county to ensure no additional tax money went their way. Also put a bunch of our land into the Wildlands program so property taxes would be dramatically reduced when they tried to tax woodland in a floodplain as "excess residential". Represented myself in the state hearing where they referred to the county tax assessor's actions as "disturbing" when they reached a judgment in my favor. -end rant-
