School Trustee Sees Defeat of Next Bond Issue
School trustees discuss a plan by Karl Opryshek to appoint the next year's tax equalization board earlier to study taxpayer complaints about a large school tax valuation increase. He warns the next bond issue could fail without relief, citing an annuitant at Humble Oil and Refining Baytown Refinery whose taxes rose 66 percent. He suggests recruiting outside help, while President Roy Fuller resists outside action. Most district property values rose by at least one third under new valuation schedules, with depreciation not allowed on commercial properties. Superintendent Gentry says errors could be corrected if present.
