Turner claims tax dispute hinges on 1902 railroad exemption
Capt. R N Turner announces he has not paid 1907 taxes while awaiting a reversal of a Justice Mumford ruling or broader reassessment of Bristol property. The May Superior Court decision held the Foster to Providence & Danielson Railroad franchise shielded it from taxation, upholding an exemption long used in towns. Turner says he faces over $100 in personal taxes, asserts many Bristol properties remain unassessed and may be illegally exempt, and he may pursue a test case to bring the issue before the public.
