Loss in Taxes by Exemption Act Hits City and County
The new exemption of household effects up to $500 from taxation, effective Jan 1, 1918, will reduce tax collections for Frederick County and the city. County Clerk Harman L. Gaver estimates a loss around $10,900 for the county, with city losses uncertain but sufficient to raise tax rates. City Attorney Edward J. Smith urges reassessment of personal property to offset part of the impact. The law also applies statewide, exempting only the specified household items, not expensive furniture or art.
