School Tax Burdens Leveled In State
Wrightsville Beach August 14. LeRoy Martin of the state board of equalization told county commissioners that uniform tax rates do not exist across counties for public school support due to valuation differences yet the current system with a large equalizing fund gives each county equal opportunity while allowing higher spending where people fund it. He warned that statewide school maintenance would threaten local control, provoke wasteful spending, and centralize taxes, while urging uniform valuation standards and careful use of the quadrennial revaluation to keep school tax burdens fair.
