office administrator, said the
survey just begun in this county is one of 19 such county
surveys being conducted this
year to bring up to date the .
findings based on surveys made
three years ago,
Owners of properties appraised will be notified of the market value found by the survey
and may inspect the appraisal
records,
The program, Janes explained, helps to measure the taxable resources of a school district and determine that local
schools get their proper share
of state school funds, Other
things being equal, the state
furnishes more.aid to school
districts with limited taxable
resources: than to wealthy districts.
An annual finding of each county's average assessment level,
expressed as a percentage of
market value for all taxable —
property in the county, is based
on the Board's survey. This
county average is compared to
the statewide average. If the
county's assessed values conform substantially, no adjustment is needed, If the assessed values are far out of line,
they will be changed to make
the county's average conform
with the average for the state.
"Whether an adjustment is
made or not, the county average, and the statewide average
based on the 58 county findings
are used in a formula by which
over $650 million in state funds
are allocated among the state's
1,158 school districts," Janes
said, The $650 million dollars
is about 45 per cent of total
state aid. to school districts,
which now runs to nearly a
billion and a half dollars a
year,
This is but one of a halfdozen uses to which the assessment level percentages are
put, Another important use is
to determine the extent to which
state loans to school districts
for building construction are to
be repaid.
The countywide average may
also be used by a property taxpayer to help him decide whether his assessment is fair when
compared to assessments of all
other property in the county.
