Assessors' Report
The past year the Town has been more fortunate than first expected.
The personal property valuation was only $360.00 be- low last year's valuation.
There was nearly enough new building to overcome the loss and reduced assessments, making the difference of $6100.00 less in real estate valuation. Though there was the loss of the gasoline tax and one-third less of the excise tax, the two-thirds cut in the State tax with a larger receipt from the corporation taxes plus $1500.00 taken from the available funds a tax rate of $25.50 was set.
The following tables of figures will give you more in- formation.
