Abstract:
In 1937, the state's counties needed to reevaluation property tax choosing one of two options, full reevaluation or horizontal increase/decrease. Horizontal increase/decrease refers to a raise or lessening of taxes with a uniform percentage instead of the costly and time consuming of assessing every parcel. Boards of Commissioners were responsible for making this decision for their counties.
