Over 400 people appeared during the - f o u r day s of hear -ings-May 31, June 2, 7, and 12. Many complained about the long wait. Some had been at the Courthouse for hours waiting their turn. It was the last day designated by the county commissioners for tax equalization hearings. They finished the session about 8 p.m. There were hefty increases in taxes over past years due to the State Tax Commissions equalization effort. Also, in Park City an additional average of 40 percent was levied. Reed D. Pace, Summit County Clerk and Auditor, said, "In 1958 Park City was in a depressed condition and the State Tax Commission reduced assessed valuation about 40 percent. This was the year it was picked up, and it made a big increase. Pace and the commissioners Being Held for Youth of County were assisted by three members of the State Tax Commission, Dale Slater, landapprais-e- r; John Weigel, building and Howard Lowe, special appraiser for the Green Belt program. They accepted applications for tax changes. Of all those protesting, according to Pace, not more than two dozen were county residents. Most were owners of lots in summer home subdivisions. A few were range or farmland owners living elsewhere. . They didnt sign up with the Green Belt policy -s- aid they didnt know about it, so it was not assessed as farm land. I dont believe theState Tax Commission is out of line in assessment except in Number Two range land. Weve listed it Number Three range land. Ive argued that all that sagebrush and rock and cedar should be Number Three, Pace said. He said no action had been taken on applications.

Pink elephants, maybe. And an occasional white crow. But how long since youve seen a red coyote? Ranchers in the area east and south of CoalviUe swear there is a red coyote, much larger than the average wild beast, running in the hills in that neighborhood. Says Sam Blonquist, popular North Summit football coach and summertime rancher: Ive seen it several times. And it is definitely red. Almost as red as a setter dog. Well, could it possibly be a big red dog gone wild? Thats possible, of course. But it runs with coyotes -- and that just isnt done in the animal kingdom. Other ranchers and workers in the hills behind HoytsviUe have seen the animal and agree that it is a red coyote. Meanwhile, color camera bugs are lurking and the agree that its possible a sneaky hound, several generations ago, might have invaded a coyote old-tim- ers harem. Keep an eye peeled and your color camera handy. Might be worthwhile. |
