State Timber Tax Rate Change Shelved as Prices Rise
MadisonWisconsin Speanly reports a new severance tax schedule to tax timber by average prices, increasing rates on white pine to 14 per 1000 feet and spruce to 3 50 while others rise. The tax funds state aid to local governments and reflects higher market values. County forester Wilson notes rising harvests with nearly a million feet of hard maple and half a million feet of hemlock cut last year. Cords of pulpwood and spruce balsam also increased as higher priced species dominate.
