TOWN HALL NEWS The in his circular letter says, and we quote "When we told them our assessment was $1,250,000 the public ut­ilities board said we had plenty of borr­owing -pco-wr," In 1952 the town asses^m^j-i; was $841, 454 in 1953 it was $11165,909 a jump of 40% oveimight. The increase of $324,455. at 43 mils is $13,951.56 yearly. For a four year period it is $55,806.24. At one time 70 people were in line at the town hill protesting their assessment. The !M.yor kept out of sight while the Coouicil ignored their appeil. The assessment should be moved back to where it was in 1952 then there wouLd be few arrears. A $1,250,000,00 assessment for Magath is disgraceful, shocking, double wiat it should be. The tax payer stands with a millstone around his neck and no relief in sight.
