Real Estate Tax Bill Debate At West Side Meeting
Lawson Purdy of the Board of Tax Commissioners addressed opponents of the Saxe bill at a West Side YMCA session. The bill would require affidavits in real estate deeds or filings to reveal true money consideration and exchange values to aid assessments. Purdy argued the measure promotes equity, but opponents warn it could curb brokerage activity and reveal private sale data. He explained the lien bill for back taxes, how liens are sold to the lowest bidder, and noted the department’s unit valuation and nonresposibility for franchise taxes.
