"Just tell you"? At some point you are going to have to use your own head- many many suggestions have been made on this forum like:
1/ Get an exemption. thats means YOU GO (not "I tell you") to the local county office and request the proper form and make the proper claim. But you already knew that.
2/ Get the parcel off the rolls. Happens all the time when there is an amalgamation or sub division. No registration, no tax. This will require the same step as #1 above.
Was this English plain enough? I think some grasp of the 'Latinate' is needed and normal anyway- we use this everyday.
Depends on if you put the pedal to to the metal and do your homework. Get an exemption, or obtain exclusion.
And your "park bench dormitory potential" depends on the laws of the state in question-

did you even bother to read this? In Texas you don't have to pay property taxes- they pay themselves!
I can think of many states and countries w/ similar laws.
Its a business- have you ever gone to a corporate office and actually tried to negotiate?
I suspect you have been to a bank before- how about the county registrar? If you have a problem with a utility company, do you go go online and wait for someone to tell you what to do, or do you call the office? How about school? or any contract or commerce out there?
This is what I meant by the "masonic dead-end": instead of stories- practice, implement, do, ask, seek, find, get, achieve.
So get on with it! Tea is good though, this time don't dump it in the harbour, take it home and brew it!
