Single Tax Table for Concord Assessments Reveals Impacts
A Concord reader supplied 1908 assessment data showing how a single tax on land would affect taxpayers. The study estimates that 162 of 1011 names would drop from the list if personal property were exempt, and 5637 would save or lose tax under land only, with the greatest changes in Precinct 2 and among non residents. If land were taxed, rates drop to about 22 per thousand, affecting 378 taxpayers differently, while total implications depend on whether personal property remains taxed or is exempt.
