Editor's Mail questions Vermillion township assessments
A reader from Vermillion township Kermit Strickler argues farmers and businesses were taxed differently from Centerville. He claims 35 percent assessment on inventory for businesses and livestock and machinery at 35 percent, with 60 percent payment schedules misapplied, cites 12 acres undeclared, and notes mills and lumber yards taxed unevenly. He insists consistency is needed and that millage findings should not justify unequal assessments.
