City Taxpayers Urged to Scrutinize City Officials
Taxpayers are urged to examine the management of city finances and the officials who direct city affairs. The argument states that if residents condone and persist with this class of finance managers, they become the real culprits. The call is for broader attention to official selection.
Re-equalization Possible for County Valuations
Attorney General Kuhn said last week the state tax commission may allow boards of supervisors to re-equalize counties at October meetings even if equalization occurred in June. This clears the way for adjusting the $25,006,000 mining value added to the county. The tax commission should first review Gogebic assessments, then the county board can readjust city and township valuations.
