In answer TO the interrogatory relating to the
amount Of taxes remaining unsolicited your com

assessments OF property taxed within the limits of
the city are not in condition to exhibit the total
amount Of property assessed owing to the tax books

found 1t impossible to give answer TO this part
the resolution without having our time to iavesti
Eate ana u absolutely necessary 70 incur expense
IN order to arrive at the faers derived.
Your committee would further report that the law
I'm poses this duty upon the tax clerk but owing to
the excessive duties now performed by that officer,
it is impossible for him to perform this duty. We
further find that blame attaches to any officer of
the corporation account of the unfinished state of
the books. We recommend that measures be taken
by the Councils to secure the services of competent
Officer whose dnty 1t shall be to prepare these books,
and thus protect the corporation.
