More Time for Personal Tax Appeals

:
District taxpayers who have failed
to exercise the right of appealing per-
sonal tax assessments within the usual
ten-day period allowed. will be given
until March II to file protests with the
board of personal tax appeals. From the
letters received and inquiries made at
the assessors Office it is believed
that many persons failed to make ap-
peals because they believed the expira-
ton of the ten-day limit mentioned in
the notice OF assessment operated as a
stay against any protest being made.
The board stated today that it will be
glad to entertain any appeal that may
be made between now and March II,
Irrespective of the date mentioned in
the notice. About $4,000 notices have
been served during the present appeal
period.
