Frederick County Tax Collection Rises Above Previous Years
Frederick County treasurer Harry L. McCann told the Board of Supervisors that 96.14 percent of the $1,073,001.10 tax levy for fiscal year 1966 had been collected by June 30, with $1,031,617.69 in taxes received and $41,379.91 delinquent. Delinquents are deemed largely collectible, and highway funds totaling $752,000 will be spent next year on road maintenance and improvements. The board approved the budget, heard drainage complaints from Pineville subdivision residents, and discussed road extensions and zoning matters including a trailer park proposal and the Lynn Heights subdivision deeds. The board also approved demolishing a small building and installing a lavatory, and authorized purchasing 6.6 acres for the county dump at $3,000 with continued industrial waste dumping through 1968.
