Phil Schneider, state game
director, advised sportsmen to­
day that this is the amount
of taxes paid to counties for
the 1968-69 tax year by the
Game Commission. The dir­
ector said that the current as­
sessment represents an in­
crease of $23,000 over the$77,-
000 tax assessment last year.
One of the big Increases took
place in Multnomah County
where the assessment on the
Commission’s Government Is­
land property jumped from just
over $5,200 a year ago to more
than $20,700 this year. The
Columbia Countv portion of the
Sauvie Island Game Manage­
ment Area received a boost of
about $5,000 in taxes, jumping
from $26,300 the previous year
to $31,600 this year.
Except for two game manage­
ment areas, all other public
shooting areas received sub­
stantial boosts In tax assess­
ments. Schneider said the same
held true for big game winter
ranges such as Bridge Creek
Flats on the John Day River
and the Wenaha elk range near
Troy.
The director advised
that only three new facilities
were added to the tax rolls
during the year, the total as­
sessment for which amounted
to just over $104.
Schneider said that of all
the facilities operated by the
Game Commission in the pub-
