SV Road Board Appeals To State
The South Venice Road and Bridge District trustees asked Atty. Gen. Earl Faircloth to reduce their 1966 tax millage after a 100 percent assessment and a 20-mill levy produced higher revenue than needed. District chairman Hartley P. Dermond and trustees Russell Bell and Albert W. Pfannbuch signed the letter seeking a millage reduction to about 9 mills. The appeal targets Sarasota County tax rolls closing on September 6.
