Polk Co. Tax
Bills May Hit
Mail Today
Statesman Newt Srrvic
DALLAS Polk County property
tax statements probably will go in
to the mail Thursday, Sheriff Tony
Neufeld said Wednesday.
Most districts in the county will
pay higher levies than last year.
Exceptions are Dallas, Falls City
and Valsetz where overpayments
were made last year because not
all assessed valuation was on the
tax roll.
The county's rural school levy
has been increased by 15.4 mills.
First-class districts are not af
fected by this levy.
Areas with standing timber have
benefited because the state tax
commission has increased the as
sessed valuation on timber. Person
al nrnnprlv has hfpn 'rut from 4fl
per cent to 22 per cent of assessed !
i,.,f;n :
In total county assessments, new
buildings and timber assessments
have- increased the value of real
property enough to balance the loss
in valuation through the cut in
personal property.
