LIST YOUR UfluT
PROPERTY nU H
THIS IS APPRAISAL YEAR; Property Values are Subject to Change.
NOTE: It is compulsory that all automobile owners, regardless of age, list their cars
to save being penalized.
Tax listers will be at the following places in the various townships on the dates
given to list property for the year 1957. The Board of Commissioners asks all persons
to cooperate to the fullest extent in helping the listers to get a correct list of all property.
The law provides that a penalty shall be effected against any person failing to list his or
her property (although this will not be applied to non-residents). All persons should make
a strong effort to see the List Taker or have some person represent them and save the
embarrassment of going before the Board asking for corrections when they have failed to
list their property. It is highly to the land owner's interest that he meet with List Taker and
Assessors as this is revaluation year and it will be of great importance to him in arriving
at an established figure to be set on his property.
Following are the List Takers for January, 1957. List Takers first in order.
