Taxwise Assessments Favor Business Over Homes On Center Street
An illustration shows how business and mercantile properties gain from new assessments compared with homes. Last year the Center Street building had a $22,190 assessment with 19 mills tax totaling $471.61. The 1965 revived assessment is $59,600 with 5 mills, tax $342.70, a net reduction of $7,831. The loss in real estate tax revenue will be clearer after notices are computed, offset by a half percent income tax. A Corry wage earner earning $3,800 annually would pay about $19 in wage taxes. Other large reductions include Georgt B. Chase at 46 West Main from $10,030 to $10,830, Cupco Realty/Cohen Auto Parts from $10,350 to $9,150, Fogle Lumber Co from $51,210 to $30,780, and John Shira at 108 West Main from $9,150 to $6,580.
