Tax Commissioners
Attend Forum at KF
Klamath Falls OPi The
tended a public tax forum here
Wednesday night where more
than 250 taxpayers were on
hand to hear answers to their
tax questions.
Commission Chairman Sam
uel B. Stewart, said that the
commission is not trying to
transfer all tax authority to the
state level as some persons be
lieve, but has as its whole ob
ject to make the property tax
work at the local level. Stewart
said he doesn't believe the
state's reappraisal program had
any bearing on the recent jump
in Klamath county's taxes,
which are the highest in the
state. Higher taxes in Klamath
county, he said, as anywhere
else, are the results of increased
budgets.
