Tax Commission Increases Private Utilities Valuation
The Colorado State Tax Commission raised privately owned public utilities valuation to 328,474,460, a net increase of 27,489,230 from last year. Chairman John F.H. Seaman said new construction drives most of the boost, with total state valuations nearing three billion dollars. He noted taxes will rise about 775,000 due to utility valuation, but tax rates may not drop accordingly. The 1964 statewide valuation was 2,499,816,248, and reappraisal efforts are not the cause of the utility increase.
