Notice To Taxpayers
\ll tax-payers of Rutherford county are requested to
lis heir personal property with the County Assessor at
on
ne Revaluation Law makes it compulsory for «vei\
ta> . ei to list all the personal property he possessed on
the rst day of January, 1920, at its cash value, and pro
vi penalty of 25 per centum to he anded to the tax,
in «• event of his lailure to list; and the law also makesit
a .sdemeanor for any Que to fail or refuse to list his
pei »na 1 property for taxes. Ihe County Assessor is now
ari meetings in the various townships for the pur
poi- of making lists and conferring with the tax-payers, so
th*' the utmost fairness and equality in valuations be
eflV« ted.
The real property has been assessed at as near its cash
value as possible and now it is compulsory for every tax*
pa\er to list his personal property for taxes at its true
cash value. If all tax-payers would at once prepare
memoranda of all personal property owned by them ou the
first of January, 1920, it would greatly expediate the work
of the Assessors and wave much expense as well as valuable
time Special attention is directed to the provision that
all solvent credits and notes due the tax-payer must be
itemized, each solvent credit and note separately and by
name, or the tax-payer will forfeit his right to collect the
name.
To produce the lowest possible tax rate uuder the Re
valuation Act it is necessary that all tax-payers prepare
complete memoranda of the personal property in good
faith and with care, kor these reasons we appeal to every
body to assist us by having these memoranda ready at the
sever il appointments now being made for the purpose of
listing personal property. As a matter of course, the more
accurate the values placed upon property the quicker the
assessment will be completed and the less it will cost the
county to do this work.
