City Council ProCeedinqs

A special meeting of the Com mon Council, City of Palmer, was held during the afternoon of November in the office of the City Clerk. A regular agenda was followed. The special meeting was called because of contemplat- ed absence from the city of council member on the regular meeting night, November 8.
 Lew Hanks, board member of the Palmer Independent School District, was in attendance and asked council members for a de- cision on whether they wish to go ahead with a reassessment of city property improvements. During a discussion which followed it was pointed out that the tax as Sessor office is maintained by the School District; that the areas outside city limits have been ad- justed and that an adjustment within the city would bring the entire taxroll more fairly in line. It was brought out that although the school district may benefit from the equalization, the city will also gain by having an up-to- date tax roll. A tax roll is a re- quirement for any bonding need of the city. Without tax roll the city water system bonding would have been impossible. Every city represented at the recent League of Alaska Cities convention is working on a revaluation pro- gram, it was announced. Coun- cil members voted unanimously to authorize the tax assessor to begin a revaluation of city pro- perty improvements for assess ment purposes within the city, in accordance with the School Dis trict agreement that the City will consider at a later date what. if any, share of any additional expense shall be borne by the City of Palmer.
