Tax Leyy of Fifty Cents on the Hun
dred Dollars
The County Com'missioners were
in session Tnesdsv and levied the
taxes for 192 p. This is some three
months later than the 'axes have
heretofore been levied, due to carry -
ing out the revaluation act of 19111
and submitting the result to a special
session of the Legislature which
finished its work and adjourned last
Thursday.
There will be no property tax for
State purposes aa the State will get
aufficient revenue from other sources
t > run the State government. Last
year Alamance county paid the
State $41,409.01 levied on real end
personal property. Now all property
taxes collected in the county will be
used for county purposes.
The levy on the 1100 valuation of
real and personal property is ss fol
lows: f
\ County government,' .08
Roads aud bridges, .04
Bonds and " s .09
School purpose*, " .29
Total, .50
The poll tax will be in addition to
the above for those liable to poll lax.
Last year the property valuation
in Alamance aggregated (14,296.732,
upon which there was a levy of $1.40
on the SIOO, which produced $200,-
154.25 in taxes on "both real and
personal property.
,This year under the revaluation
act real and personal property valua
tions aggregate which
may be slightly varied by final veri
fications. The tax on the amount
under'the levy of 50 cts. on the SIOO
will produce $192,947.78, which is
$7,206.47 les than the property tax
of last year. Instead of the ten per
cent increaae in amount of taxes over
the amount levied laat vear, permit
ted under the revaluation act, there
is a decrease of nearly lour percent,
or about $7,206 less than levied last
year.
Instead of payihg over to the State
this year over forty thousand dollars
derived from tax on real and per
sonal property, all taxes derived
from these sources will be kept in
the county to be u*ed for school and
county government expenses of every
kind and nature.
