The unit foot and acreage valucs placed on local land by the land value and revaluation committees were unanimously approved at a special town meeting held in the High scheel auditortum last night, and the figures prepared by these committeés were recommended to the board of assessors for use in compiling the 1928 grand list. There was much less discussion than had been anticipated, property owners whe had felt that the figures were rigid values from which there could be no deviation being soothed by committee members who explained the sliding scale and system of de. preciations which are to be used in connection with the values. Most of those who spoke last night were endeavoring to explain this fact, and the opposition, slight as it was in the first place, had been won over | before the vote was taken. The voters also authorized the a board of three park commissioners. First Selectman James Simpson called the meeting to order and, as Stanley S, Gwillilm had returned to town, this “permanent chalrman” was again named te take charge of the meet- ing.

Numerous complaints had been re- ceived, Mr. Wheeler admitted, most of them coming from farmers on the outskirts of the town. He ex- plained that front foot values would be used for only those parts of farms which were used for dwell- valued on an acreage basis. Grade A farm land is valued at $125 an acre, Grade B at $95, orchard land at $75, pasture land at $25, swamp and at $10 and wood land at $20 to $50, depending upon the stand of timber. The former figures of the were completed disregarded in ar- riving at the new valu he stated. He then presented the chairman with a larg map of the land values, small ssessory the asseasors to use only 76 per cent of these values byt that the recom. mendation did net say gso. B. E. Getchell moved that the motion be amendéd and that 76 per cent of the figure on the map be recommend- ed, the motién being further quali- fied when Harry O. Rex obtained the insertion of *“approximately” to give the assessors seme latityde. Olivér Peace uyrged that land values be kept as low as pomsible so that high valuations might not re. tard land sales. The town is taxed now about te the limit,” he con- cluded and sat down amid applause. Another voter said that many eut- siders maved to Plainville because of lewer taxes here and that this source of growth should not be dis- couraged, The chairman pointed out that a peduction of the tax rate would fellow & general increase of {the grand list and asked Mr. Lamb of the appraising company for cor- roboration. “Usually the little fellow has been paying teo much,” Mr. Lamb replied, | saying that amall property owners {had been paying on & larger pro- portion of their property values than {had the larger landowners. He | thought that the meeting was wandering from the topic, however, |and sald, “The question tonight is if |the land values are just and equit- able.” | Mr. Bull injected & complaint on Hough street valuations, saying property there was valyed at a high- | er amount than that of any sale yet made on the street. The chalr- man said that there was always a possibility of mistakes, as it was impomsible for any group of men to do a 100 per cent job involving such |2 large acreage as that of Plainville. | There were always two recourses, he pointed out, which dissatisfied {1andholders could take: they might obtain peductions from the board of asseasors or from the board of relief. | Great Loss Rectified | | After speaking of the standard de- preciations for land below level or nest to schools and factories, Mr. | | Washburn threw a virtual bembshell {Into the meeting and created a sen- eation.
