As a result of the legislative fail- ure, many delinquent taxpayers are waiting until after July 1, when the {law goes into effect, to pay their tax- {es, minus the penalties and interest, ‘HK, J. Roberts, assistant to Lee Nichols, tax commissioner, said. In addition to the slowing tax pay- ments, Roberts explained, commit- ments of the federal land bank also loans to pay their taxes at this time. Some commitments, Roberts said, are in danger of withdrawal, because landowners are awaiting to pay with- out the penalties. Commitments will not be paid by the federal land bank until the title has been cleared, in- cluding outstanding taxes, he said. He explained that the present com- Promise law, which allows county boards of commissioners to scale down the amounts of taxes, does not meet the situation for “it takes too long to effect the compromise.” He also ex- plained the present law will not al- low cancellation of interest of penal- ties, or scaling down of the two re- quired payments. Only the total amount of tax may be compromised. “This law will be beneficial to all property owners in the state, once it becomes effective,” Roberts said, “it will particularly assist in refinancing by federal land bank loans.” @} ONTINUE D from page one’ Spurt Seen for City get out of a property on foreclosure if things should be shaken up.
