Farmers Challenge State Land Valuation Rules in Court
Sixteen Cerro Gordo county farmers filed a 21 page district court petition contesting a 1967 law setting property assessments at 27 percent of market value. They seek invalidation of Forst department methods that ordered valuations boosts in 71 of 99 counties and aim to bar increases through 1971. The suit targets a 35 percent rise in Cerro Gordo farm land value and argues uniform county rules are needed to prevent irreparable damage.
