Richardson eyes lower tax rate in 1973 74 budget
The proposed city budget for 1973-74, filed by City Manager R B Sherrill, would cut the tax rate to 1.50 per 100 valuation from 1.60. The reduction, 10 cents, hinges on an increased tax roll, new building and development, and a revaluation of property in Richardson. Sherrill notes residential property valuation reflects about 50 percent of market value.
