Tax Levy and Depot Modernization Planned for Lincoln County
The 1913 tax levy schedule shows Star Valley districts facing the highest taxes due to a 3 mill high school levy plus regular levies while Afton bears a 5.68 mill municipal tax. Kemmerer depot remodeling progresses and will offer modern facilities including a new water fountain, enlarged toilets, and a ladies rest room. The second floor will house trainmasters and dispatchers with improved heat from a new boiler plant, and an expanded express office will finish soon to handle trunks and parcels.
