Tax reform urged as Bristol faces heavy burden
An analysis argues Bristol’s tax system is outdated and unfair as valuations fall and costs rise. It notes reduced earnings from 1919 to 1933, rising town debt to 256,740.94 and unpaid taxes over 105,608.92, and calls for revising property taxes to align with income and capacity. The piece cites Rhode Island law and broader tax theories, urging change.
