EDWARDS, FORMERLY WITH | e | olution, stated the report was satisfac- | n ‘After considerable discussion the | peautifully and continued .tc right up | tory. report was adopted. During the course of the debate on | who is Democratic leader in th2 county.l discussed thz question -of taxes in Montgomery County in answer to a statement of Mr. Lamar that taxes| were now too high and the tax rate higher than in th2 District of Columbia. Maj. Lee stated that as far as the sounty in general is concerned the coun- | ty tax rate is $1.30 on the $100 essessed | value plus the State rate of 25 cents. H= pointed out that this $1.55 rate ap- | plies to the entire county, except in- ted towns, special taxing areas ang special taxing districts. Lee fur-| ther contended that since the amount of taxes paid on the $100 worth of property owned was calculated by mul- tiplying the assessed value of the, prop- erty by the tax rate, it is totally, unfair to compare tax rates and not to com- pare the ratio of assessed valus of th2 actual value. % Tax Relatively Small. * Lee pointed out that homes and busi- ness properties in the District of Colum- bia were assessed at nearly twice as high a ratio when compared to present market value as is the general ratio of assessment in Montgomery County. and consequently the taxss paid in Mont- gomery County os any $100 worth of property is very nearly 50 per cent less than the taxes paid in the District of Columbta. Lee further pointed out that the av- erage assessment of the District of Co- sales value of the property and that the average assessment on & farm or home or business property in Montgomery sales value. That is, on & property with a present sales value of $10,000 in the District of Columbia the assessment would be $8.000, and that tax rate being $1.70 per hundred the tax payer would pay $136 per year. In the highest-taxed suburban section of Montgomery Coun- ty, with a total rate of $2.20 per hun- dred, Lee pointed out that the assess- ment would be $4,500, which would re- quire an annual tax payment by the owner of $99. In the general county area where the $1.55 tax rate prevails | the property owner would only pay $69.75 per year, as compared to $136 in_the District of Columbia. Lee stated that the ratio of assess-: ment prevailing n Montgomery County | was uniform throughout the county, |and was also equivalent to the ratio of | assessment_prevailing in_the adjacent Maryland counties of Prince Georges, | | Frederick and Howard. | Harry M. Martin Speaks. | Lee also stated that the only fair way to compare the District of Columbia | tax rate with the Montgomery County ! rate would be to raise the Montgomery | County rate of assessment to the pres- ent high level maintained in the Dis- trict of Columbia. stated that while Montgomery County | had enjoyed adequate school and road CHILCOTT BROTHERS.
