Legislator Blames Railroads for Industrial Slowdown in Pima County
State Rep. William A. Buehl accuses Southern Pacific Santa Fe and Pacific Fruit Express of hindering Arizona industry through high freight rates and tax avoidance. He cites railroads' 60 percent assessment versus 40 percent for utilities and 25 percent for others and predicts Tucson property tax relief may come, with city rates likely rising to 1.75 per 100 next August.
