Orange County Supervisors end 1968 with tax roll action
Orange County Board of Supervisors closed 1968 by approving the county tax roll for 20 towns and three cities and correcting a computer overassessment of 737,350 for Highlands to 11,716,604. They dissolved the Public Health Committee and transferred duties to the new board of health and health district, approved about 60 positions, and honored planning director Carl J. Mays for 12 years of service as his successor prospects emerged. The board plans an organization meeting January 7 and final year in office, with elections to direct 21 county legislators in 1970.
