Tax law aims to curb equity suits in Oklahoma
Oklahoma City July 22 The third legislature's tax law seeks to end numerous equity suits challenging levies while preserving the taxpayer’s day in court. County boards may equalize between townships and on individual applications, with some boards unsure if they may raise or lower assessments. Tulsa County's W L North argued the true value is about 60 percent of the assessed figure, while Muskogee County residents pressed for lower city and county valuations. Osage County faces a surplus Indian land issue, with large leases affecting tax rolls and land values. Other counties heard include Tillman Haskell Cherokee McIntosh Ottawa Okmulgee Okfuskee Seminole Washington Wagoner, while Adair Craig Delaware Nowata did not attend.
