Newark Taxpayers Rally Over County Tax Hike
Newark residents protested county tax increases in a meeting with city officials and council members. John E. Santos urged asking Supervisor Chester Stanley for a full accounting of county spending as annexation reduces county jurisdiction.

Santos estimated last year’s rate rise to 35 percent per hundred valuation, bringing the tax to 82.09 per 100, highlighting higher county costs for a city incorporated in 1955.
