Tax Commissioner Discusses New Valuation Plan and Growth
The Tax Commissioner briefed on a plan to double or triple state valuation, with opposition noted but optimism that the public will see its value. The ex governor argued it could attract settlers if taxes drop under the new system, while the commissioner noted the need for more district judges with higher valuations. He travels between Lander and Moneta to consult county assessors, then plans visits to Red Bank and Basin country. The wool industry in Natrona County is being supported with new dry sheds, sheltered scales for weighing wool, direct ship options to eastern points, and an April 20 dipping plant completion to aid sheep handling.
