Intangible Tax May Fall Short Of Yearly Expectation
Loretn County Budget Commission warns municipalities and seven libraries may face reduced intangible tax receipts this year as a business recession tightens dividend income. Libraries receive first claim on such taxes, with any remainder shared among the origin counties. First-half collections were down by about eight thousand eight hundred dollars from 1958, signaling a likely steep second-half decline. Members include Auditor Frank Ayres Treasurer Carl Schmitkens and Prosecutor Paul Mikus.
