County Tax Basis Increase Not As Large As Expected
County commissioners announced the 1911 reassessment figures showing a total county basis increase of 4.503 million dollars amid broader state growth. Total cost of the assessment was about 27 thousand dollars, with many districts rising while some remained near prior values. The first general reassessment since 1886 aims for equity, though some districts faced earlier complaints over uneven valuations.
