Frederick County faces 33000 tax cut hit to funds
Frederick County Commissioners warn a proposed 15 percent inventory tax cut will drain about 33 000 dollars from the county general funds annually. They warn higher direct levies would be needed for schools and roads, and note broader revenue losses if license fees and inventory exemptions pass or fail in the General Assembly. They cite impact on 1956 and future tax rates, suggesting a possible 30 cent increase per hundred and discussing exemption patterns across Maryland counties.
