"Thoro should bo a ro-aucsment nf all
tho property In Omaha and taxes should
be levied upon tho actual cash valuation of
tho property and not upon a curtain per
cent of tho valuation, as Is now tho case. I
will ask tho city council for a spcclul ap
propriation to bear tho additional expense
Incurred by such a plan, and hope to he
ablo to taKo now valuations on uu mo
property In tho city before tho levy is made
for 1901," said William Fleming, city tax
commissioner.
When asked what per cent of tho nctual
valuation ot property Is now assessed In
thn oUi- Mr. Klcinlnc uald that tho basis
I for assessment varied greatly, but that he
'believed it would averago Icfb than 3.1 1-3
per cent. In somo cases ho said it was
much higher, and In others niucn lower.
Ilo expressed tho opinion that thcro Is much
proporty in tho city that Is paying taxs
upon less than 20 per cent of Its actual
I valuation, while other property Is asbessed
i un to Its actual value.
"My plan for ro-assossment Is not tho
' samo that was usod when the last re
nssessmont was taken In 1897 for the
levy mado in 1S0S. Instead of employing a
largo number of deputies I would have
' several expert real cstato men who nro woll
posted In values nsslst mo nnd mako a par
tonal visit to all parts of tho city."
"Much moro thorough -work could be
done by a few men than by tho largo num
ber of deputies that has formerly been em
ployed," Mr. Fleming explained. "Tho cost
of this work would probably bo between
$1,000 and $1,500. I do not know that It
would result In tho Increase of tho city's
Incomo from taxation, but It -would do
away with many inequalities la assessments
that now exist and would bring about har
mony among taxpayers."
Tho taxes for 1001 will bo assessed be
tween September and December of tho pres
ent year. Mr. Fleming will ask the council
shortly for tho monoy necossary to make
tho re-asscssmont. Under tho law tho
actual cash valuation of property is sup
posed to bo tho basis for tax levies, but It
has been customary to tako only a per
centage of tho actual valuation.
