Raleigh Explains 1930 Valuation School Tax Levy
In Raleigh experts outline that every county must levy 15 cents per 100 on the 1930 valuation for six months school expenses. If the 1931 or 1932 valuation is lower, the rate rises to match the 15 cent base on 1930. Additional levies may fund capital outlay and higher salaries if approved by required boards.
