Jones County Faces Delay in 1966 Tax Millage Calculations
Jones county has been denied an injunction to set 1965 tax millage on current valuations. The Iowa State Tax Commission ordered changes affecting 386 properties outside towns and 6,040 changes in residential and merchantile valuations. The county aims to complete the updated tax list in about six weeks, with school districts overlapping county lines creating a broader delay.

Stricter dog licensing to start January first
New strict dog licensing rules take effect January 1. County assessor Lorenzen says rabies vaccination proof is required, with field assessors listing dogs and licensing only after veterinarians certify a current rabies shot. Several assessor appointments and districts are announced for 1966. The Monticello Jaycees will collect used Christmas trees January 2, and Schoon Motor will unveil a new Dodge Charger in Monticello January 3 with free coffee and doughnuts.
