Primaries Cost Coin County Levy Set At 2 1 2 Per 100
Bannock county will set its 1910 levy at 2.50 per 100 this afternoon or tomorrow morning as county commissioners fix the levy. Pocatello expects higher taxes with a city levy of 3.62 and a school district levy of 2.00 to push total property taxes to 8.12 per 100, the highest in history. The rise stems from new direct primaries and financing for bonds, with sewerage bonds being the largest item.
