Kootenai County Won't Join State Tax Refusal
County Attorney Sara R. Whitla states Kootenai County will not oppose the state tax levy and will not join Nez Perce Shoshone and Latah counties in mandamus action to force payment. He argues the levy aligns with constitutional provisions and that much of the tax funds indebtedness to the state and specific state needs. Attorney General Guheen prepared an opinion on constitutionality while the 1905 legislature added an extra ad valorem tax to fund state purposes.
