Assessment Department

Arlington voters have an opportunity
to make significant improvement in
their county government. If they vote
''yes" on the proposal to create a De-
partment of Real Estate Assessment
they will provide Arlington with the
needed machinery to distribute the tax
burden equitably. Many urban areas
are using modern and scientific methods
for assessing real property. Arlington
does not. The adoption Of proposal No.
on the ballot will permit Arlington to
use continuously such modern and SCI
entific methods.
The Arlington Citizens Study Commits
sion, of which had the privilege of
being chairman, was appointed by the
County Board to report on this and the
other referenda on the ballot This COM
mission observed that the assessment of
real estate is the method for distributing
the tax burden among property owners.
The assessment must be proportional
and equitable to divide the tax burden
justly. The proposed real estate de-
partment is needed to provide a we'll
trained staff for making fair assess
ments. The commission recommended
that the proposal be adopted.
Harold A. Stone.
