Explanation OF
Tax Assessor
Given
Fla. Voters Decide
Issue Pertaining
Only To Monroe

The proposal that the
Monroe County tax assessor
take over the city tax job
was commented upon today
by William F. Larsen, direc-
tor, Public Administration
Clearing Service of the Uni
versity of Florida.
This proposition, house joint Re-
solution No. 85S, will be on the
November ballot and it provides
that the county tax assessor shall
assess all property in Monroe Coun-
ty rather than have a separate city
tax assessor as at present.
Larsen wrote:
Present Amendment
"This proposed amendment re-
lating only to Monroe County
would consolidate all tax assessing
functions in that county into the
office of the county tax assessor.
"It is similar to but not identi-
cal with an amendment which fail
ed to be adopted at the last gen.
eral election in 1852 pertaining q
consolidated tax assessing in Mon
roe County.
''The difference is that the pre-
sent proposal made this consolida-
ton mandatory, whereas the a.
mendment two years ago made it
permissive with respect to the
citizens of the county.
1857 Vote
"The citizens of Monroe County
voted favorably on this proposal
two years ago with its slightly diff
ferent permisSive provisions, al
though the amendment failed to get
statewide majority which is nee
essary even for amendments af-
fecting only one county or city.
"The lack of permissive. clause
in this amendment does mean that
majority of citizens elsewhere in
Florida who probably have no di-
rect knowledge of local problems
in Monroe County and Key West
have it within their power to fix
rigid constitutional requirement
for these areas regardless of local
sentiment"
