Tax Rate for
City Fixed on,
Basis of 2.74
Assessments for Public I'M
provements in Each Bor.
ough Add to the Total
Agreed On by Aldermen
$25O,6O1,57O Budget
Final Valuation Puts Realty
at 10 Billion and Person.
al Property at 21l Million

The Board of Aldermen met in spe-
clal session yesterday and, fixed the
1922 tax rate on the basis of 2.74 for
each borough. Added TO this are the
assessments for public improvements
IN each borough, making the rate in
Manhattan. 2.75; the Bronx, 2.76;
Brooklyn, 2.76; Queens, 2.79, and Rich
mond, 2.78.
The tax rate last year was: Manhat-
$50; Queens, 2.85, and Richmond, 2.83.
In receiving from Comptroller Craig
the budget figures on which the tax
rate is based, the board took the total
of $3.50. $40, as adopted originally
by the Board of Estimate. The Board
OF Aldermen subsequently cut $271, 800
from the county appropriations II
Richmond and the Bronx, but it was
held that this action was illegal and the
appropriations were restored. The
combining of the county taxes with the
city taxes to make a uniform rate in
all the boroughs was ACCOMPLISHED bv
recent bill drafted by Comptrol!er
Craig and passed by the Legislature.
This legislation was made necessary to
bring the rate within the constitutions! |!
limit.
Realty Valuation $4,000, 100000
The total tentative real estate valua-
tions on which the tax is assessed made
public on October / last, by the De-
partment of Taxes and Assessments,
was S9,947 1928 ,092, and on personal
property 1857 7,48O,950. The final as
sessed valuations obtained Yesterday
are $10,249 991 1886 for real estate, and
S2lo,6O8,o45 for personal property. The
real estate assessm ent would appear to
be more than the tentative valuations,
but special franchise taxes from the
state to the amount of S426, ,5O091O are
included in the final figures. The spe-
clal franchise taxes were not included
in the tentative figures. This would
show loss on real estate assessment
values from the tentative figures OF
S123,832, ,167, and loss from the ten
tatlVe assessments on personal prop
erty Of S456,872,9O5. These losses are
accounted for by the swearing off and
readJustment of assessments by the
owners of real estate and personal
property. The tentative personal prop
erty assessments are always largely
sworn off.
The Department of Taxes and Assess
ments contends that there has been no
such loss-S123 1882 ,167-on the real
estate assessments, as the figures in
the Comptroller's Office show. Members
OF the Tax Department pointed out tn at
this apparent loss includes property
exempt from taxes under the tax
ordinance, which could not be wholly
determined at the time the tentative
figures were made up, and other items.
Borough Valuations
The final figures on assessment val
uations in the five boroughs, for real
estate and personally, as submitted to
the Comptroller by the Tax Depart
ment, are as follows:
