Commissioners Ask
John White Suprt
Tax CoHecting Bill
Would Put Levy on Per
sonal Property Ahead
Os Land Sales
In expectation of the General As
sembly adjourning this week, Repre
sentative John F. White was present
at the Chowan County Commissioners’
meeting Monday and inquired of them
if they had any requests which he
•juld bring before the General As-
Jtnbly before the session was closed.
One matter of especial interest to
the Commissioners is a bill sponsor
ed by the Association of County Com
missioners, which would require the
sheriff to levy upon personal proper
ty for delinquent taxes before adver
tising land for sale. It is the opinion
of the Commissioners that this pro
ceedure would result in back taxes
being paid more promptly, and for
that reason they asked Mr. White to
investigate the status of the bill and
to support it if, and when, it comes
to a vote.
By this method the sheriff could
'and would be required to seize per
sonal property of those whose taxes
were in arrears.
