Across the state, property owners are protesting 2006 tax bills that reflect increases as high as 50 percent over 2005 rates. In response, Gov. Mitch Daniels has called for sweeping property tax reform and is considering a special session of the General Assembly to accomplish it.

But many Madison County residents are anticipating that their bills will rise beyond their ability to pay them.
