Governor considers Burrows as provisional director of Revenue
Governor Harold Hughes outlined plans to appoint Earl A. Burrows Jr as provisional director of the new Department of Revenue if no regular director is hired by year end. The 1967 legislation creates the department on January 1, 1968, replacing the three member Tax Commission with a single administrator and a part time board of review. Burrows would become deputy when a director is named, with Hughes stressing continuity and orderly transfer of duties during the reorganization and Burrows’ proven tax administration skills.
