Nebraska Legislature moves to equalize property values by 1978
The Legislature endorsed an amendment to LB131 requiring counties to revalue property by January 1, 1978 or face penalties. Supporters say revaluation lets classification update values while reappraisal would require per-property assessments. An attorney general opinion warned statewide reappraisal could be impractical and harmful. Gov Exon linked LB131 passage to abolishing remaining personal property tax under LB518.
