Blanket Real Estate
Reductions Are Made
Holt county’s board of super
visors in session recently made
blanket reductions in real estate
values for 1954 assessment pur
poses in this county.
The board approved a blanket
30 percent reduction on all farm
real estate in the county, and
a blanket reduction of 20 per
cent on all city and village real
estate.
The reductions were made, a
board spokesman said, because it
was felt that real estate values
in Holt county were among the
highest in comparison with oth
er counties, since the blanket
raise made last year by the state,
board of equalization. He said
that the reductions will be in
force for this year’s assessment
unless the state board of equal
ization annuls them.
