Assessor Defends Auto Valuations Policy And Fairness
Assessor John P. Galford denied charges of unfair and excessive car assessments. He said valuations rely on a chart covering 173 models, starting at $50 for 1938 and older and $100 for 1939 to 1959, with cars valued by year model and age. He argued county car assessments compare favorably with neighboring counties and are based on lowest loan values from a national dealer chart.
