ATTY. GEMS. OPINION ON
BOWDOIN SPRINKLING BILL

In my opinion, no Reimbursement
should be made for any amount paid
for street sprinkling assessments by
educational Institutions states Hon.
Scott Wilson of Portland, the attorney
general, in a decision handed down
Tuesday in response to a question by
Hon. T. F. Callahan of Lewiston, the
State auditor, az to the right of
Bowdoin College to have reimburse
ment for the amount Of street sprinkl-
ing taxes paid on certain property held
by it in the city OF Portland. Attorney
General Wilson's decision is as fol-
lows:
In relation to the question submit
ted by you as to the right Of Bow
doin College to have reimbursement
for the amount of street sprinkling
taxes paid on certain property held
by it in the city of Portland, 1t does
not seem to me that it is entitled to
reimbursement for that part of this
tax, or perhaps I should say for the
amount paid for 1t on account Of an
assessment for street sprinklfng pur-
poses.
THE statutes creating exemptions
from taxation are consulted strictly.
and in my opinion 1t was only intend
ed to relieve educational institutions
from taxation under Paragraph II Of
Section OF Chapter Q Of the Revised
Statutes in the case of taxes assessed
in the customary way for town, coun-
ty and State purposes. 1t is held by
a general rule by authorities on tax
alton including Dillen on Municipal
Corporations, Vol. 1. Sections 777-I7s
and Cooley on Taxation, Third Edi-
ton, Vol. /, pages 362-365. that there is
distinction between taxes and assess
ments. BY the terms of the statute
and in fact the amount collected for
street sprinkling is an assessment and
IS determined by municipal officers &C
cording to betterments.
Il must therefore advise you that in
my opinion no reimbursement should
be made for any amount paid for
street sprinkling assessments by edu-
cational institutions"
