Assessments May Be Set At Full Value In Arizona
The Arizona Tax Commission indicated it will order the state's 14 counties next August to assess all property at 100 percent of cash value. The move would lift total assessed value from about 750 million to over a billion dollars. Commission Chairman C War geh Peterson stated the law requires full cash value though he declined to confirm a 100 percent order. The Supervisors Association had urged a 25 percent reduction to offset inventory cuts by assessors, a plan the commission resisted. A meeting with the association and Governor Garvey is set to discuss the issue, but Peterson signaled the panel is inclined to pursue full-value assessments despite local dissent.

State Hospital Board Seeks Added Funds
The State Hospital Board of Control asked the House Appropriations Committee to approve a 250,839 supplemental budget for the remainder of the current fiscal year. Representative Carl Morris said the board has a good chance, but doubts remain about full approval for the Public Welfare Department’s requests totaling 699,833 plus 47,802 for administration. Morris noted next fiscal year’s Social Security needs could rise by 2,167,520 beyond 6,799,660, with no guarantee of a supplemental for next year. The Legislature’s regular session begins in January, when deficiencies could be addressed. Social Security Commissioner Harry W. Hill testified, as committee members met in private after conferring with the State Board of Social Security.
