The Morgan City daily review. (Morgan City, La.) 1916-1920, 1917-07-13
OF L. e. THOMAS,
CHAIRMAN, BOARD OF STATE
AFFAIRS, IN REGARD TO THE
CALENDAR OF HEARINGS
FIXED BY PARISHES.

dividual taxpayer had a complaint
on his own assessment we would b.
very glad indeed to take these mat
tiers up at a later date, when We
would fix q calander of hearing by
parishes for the consideration of al
such complaints Of local taxpayers.
In line with the statement made
1T that time, the Board has fixed Z
calendar of hearings by parishes to.
gether for the same day, covering q
period extending over some three OF
four weeks, SO as to take in every
parish in Louisiana.
The assessor Of each parish has
4een requested to be present on the
date that his parish is fixed for
hearing, 50 that he may be consult
ed concerning all Of these matters.
The Board, in line with the policy
indicated in June, extends q cordial
invitation to each and every taxpay-
er to make his complaint, either in
person or by letter, to the Board,
concerning the actual valuation Of
his porperty by the assessor and the
police jury which passed upon the
same as q Board of Review.
If any taxpayer is aggrieved at
the value placed upon his property,
we would suggest that he write the
Board, If he cannot come here in
person., SO that we may duly consi-
der the same carefully in company
with the assessor. And those large
property taxpayers whose assess
ments will justify the same and they
are dissatisfied with the valuations
Of their property we would suggest
for them to come to Baton Rouge in
person, 80 that we may take up each
individual assessment in the parish
e with the assessor himself, and ar
rive 1T fair and an equitable valua-
ton Of his property.
Each taxpayer will take due no
tice hereof and we beg Of the press
and the assessors themselves to give
publicity to the calendar Of hearings
and to this statement of its purpose
and objects. ;.
