Honorable L. A. Swigart, Chairman,
Board of County Commissioner
of Exldy County, N. M., and As
sociate Members sitting us a
Board of Equlliiatlon,
Gentlemen:
For the purpose of pfOtOilhlg the!
record arul without prejudice to
pending litigation, the PWOa Water
Uaers' Association on behalf of each
and everyone of its shareholders who
represent the land owners under the
Carlsbad project, U, S. R. S. we no
come and (lie the following proteut in
writing, the MMM prate. t having
heretofore been tiled liefore you in
verbal manner by our legal repre-
sentative :
I, We protest in each and im i
case on behalf of the individual re
presented by our aaaoeiation which is
a corporation duly orgnniaad under
the Inws of the State of i-.i Mexico,
the assessment of any real property
under the Carlabad Project which ia
now covered by a lien held by the
United states go ei nmi nt
". In the event tabt you ihould
deem it proper to overrule the pro- !
test (lied under Sec. 1, hereof, then
and in that case. We desire to tile
a formal protest aitainst your method
of iifsc.ssment wherein are deaignati I
certain districts, namely. La Huerta,
Carlabad, otis. Loving and Malaga
and wherein you havi placed the!
value of land In the La lluirta Dis
trict at .-I mi tin. the I a rlsiind Dlatrict
ut 76.00 the otis District at $:t.Y00;
the Loving District ut jn.YOU and the I
Mnlnga District nt 180.00. We con
tend that by fixing a district at a :
haeiM price that you have not tuketi
into conaidanttlon the true value of
the individual farms within each dis
trict for the purpose ot taxation.
That in many cases the man with a
farm of small value is discriminated 1
against by an assessment that is too
high. That in many Caaoi the man
with a farm well improved is not
paying his tax In proportion to the
ether.
We pritest that in the fixing!
i of districts that the amounts fixed
j for each district is an urbitraryl
j amount und not based upon actual f
: vulue or full value. That in the fix
ing of assessed values In each district
as compared with the other district!
is not properly fixed and that there
is discrimination as between the dia
trleta,
4. That in fixing the amount of ;
uncultivated watered lar.d priced at
a uniform price of $20.00 per acre is
not in conformity with the above
schedule fixed for watered and cul
tivated land in the various districts.
6. That in view of the fact that '
these tax's are now in litigation, that
penalties should not OS added in any
event until this litigation is deter
mined by the courts and that your
Itouid is in error in not directing the
pmpei officers to suspend such penal
ties until final decision is made.
i. Thai your Board sitting as a
llpaid of Bqullisatlon fuils to com
ply with the law as intended by ita
tute unless you make an individuul
BSSese Blfnt upon each term, thereby
equalising this furm with every other 1
farm within the projivt.
7. Without prejudice to pending
litigation, we ask that your BoWdl
make slum ruling upon each of the
foregoing complaints as will correct
the conditions now mnitnninod and
mentioned thereunder.
Respectfully submitted.
