ReappraisaI OF
Real Estate In
County Planned

Noble county is going to have
another property reappraisal
which eventually will mean an
increase in taxation for prac-
tically every property owner in
the county.
Only preliminary plans have
been completed for the holding
of this reappraisal and it will not
materialize until late this fall or
the early part of 1860.
The possibility of bringing in
a firm from out of the county
to complete this reappraisal has
been discussed, since it is be-
lieved to be more fair than using
local appraisers and property
valuation will be more uniform
throughout the state.
1t is known that the depart
ment of taxation in the state
favors the use of an outside firm
although it has not yet been
determined what method will
be used in this county.
1t is generally felt though that
property valuation on the tax
duplicate IS much too low here
and there will be a considerable
increase if property in Noble
county is valued on the same
level with that in the rest of the
state.
Higher reappraisal of property
in this county will, of course,
mean higher taxes if the valua-
ton is placed where the state
thinks it should be.
