This year we have about $2.00 on our tax rate carried over from approprations made after our rate was announced.
Mr. Bradley Palmer made a gift to the State of about 1900 acres of land and buildings there on which will reduce our asses- sed value.
However the State agrees to reimburse the Town for tax on land, so it will not make a material difference in rate.
There has been some new building during the past year, but reductions and added exemptions practically off set this gain.
121
IPSWICH TOWN REPORT
We feel that the Town should go slowly in accepting any more land for public purposes, for Ipswich like many more Communities has an alarming amount of tax exempt property.
Respectfully submitted, C. CHESTER CALDWELL, JOHN E. NORMAN, WORTHINGTON H. MANSFIELD, Assessors of Ipswich.
