WANT ASSESSORS TO HAVE CITY MAP

Der of Commerce It is agreed on all sides and by all ouS conferences with appraisal companies that a tax map is absolutely essential as a basis for equal ized tax rate
 representative of the Sanborn Map Company conferred with out committee on March 4th. His estimate of the cost for a thorough tav map, including sur veys and the employment of engineers, etc. would be about S10,000. He ex- pressed the opinion that an atlas could be made of the city and town and which might be used by the assessors as a tax-map for about S4,000. Each atlas would cost about S30 to $40, and would necessitate the sale of about 100 at lases. We have recently asked this com pany to make thorough investigation of Norwich so that the definite cost, if possible, can be ascertained.
 On March 14 F. E. Jones, representing the American Air Service Corporation of Springfield, conferred with this cimmit- tee He estimated the cost of tax map from taking serial pictures at about $5.999 The pictures would clearly show buildings, streets, highways and locations and accurate tax maps made from the pictures varying in scale from 50' to the inch upwards A public exhibition Of his company's work was given In the '. M. C. A hall on March 29, with less than
 30 people present.
 On March 23rd Lyle Olsen and J. H. U. Jacques of the American Appraisal Com pany conferred with the committee. MT. Olsen stated that the problem was to secure accurate assessments of land and building; the necessity of a tax map to- gether with a supplement street map in- dicating and vaues; determine the vaues | of various types of buildings based on certain standards, which woud be com | pied from their vast records of apprais- as, taking into consideration the types | of roofs, walls, floor areas, depreciation | and obsolescence; supplying certain forms | and records for the use of assessors | in making their estimates; proper card l system and the consideration of public | improvements such as sidewalks, con ] struction of streets. corner lats, depth of land, sewers, street lighting, etc. The cost would depend on how much work was undertaken by the American Ap-
 praisal Company in conjunction with the i board of assessors. He estimated that
 it would take from ten to fifteen men, working in conjunction with the board ! of assessors, a period of about six months
 to make complete appraisal of the i city and town, at an estimated cost of
 about s20.OOO.
 There is the alternative of supplying l two or three men periodically to come | to Norwich and supervise the work of
 the assessors, instructing them as to the | various phases of conditions existing in
 the assessment of various types of prop
 erty. which would mean visits every three
 or four months, perhaps oftener, cover ing a period of approximately two years
 at cost of about $700O. He further suggested that a preliminary survey and
 a prospectus suitable for public pur-
 poses could be made up by his company
 at a cost of about $1.5OO. this sum tc
 be reckoned into the final payment ii
 the American Appraisal Company did the | whole work.
