Montana Faces Tax Reform to Fix Unequal Assessments
A Montana special tax commission reports sweeping reforms to standardize assessments and broaden the tax base. It urges a permanent three‑man body, lower solvent‑credit tax, and a registration tax on mortgages to curb evasions and ensure fair state funding. It cites Silver Bow county as an example of distorted cash deposits and urges hearings to gather full information before legislation.
