We have recommended a budget for 1948 which has .been incorporated in the report of the finance committee. Due to the increased cost of living we are recommending an increase in the amount paid for board to forty cents per meal and are supporting this recommendation in the form of a seperate resolution and hope that you will give it ,your serious consideration.

Carried - The following opinion was read: Mr: Ludwig TranmaL, County Clerk Washburn, j-Visconsin Dear mr . "Eranmal : Some time last year the United States through the agents of the Department of 1-,gricultuf:e presented a petition to our County Board requesting that certain tax, certificates be cancelled on the grounds that the lands had -been transferred to the Government and the taxes could not therefore be. collected. In spite of some Attorney General's opinions to other counties ,nihich indicated that the County Board could and should cancel such taxes, I was unconvinced and wrote the Attorney General's office expressing my reasons for feeling that the tax was.legal though not a lien against the real estate. I now have a communication from the Attorney General's office under date of September 24 in which the opinion is expressed that there is no tax liability except such'as is assertable by way of lien. Under the decision of the State Supreme Court there would be no lien under the circumstances in the ease of the lands involved in the petition before the County Board. Accordingly I am obliged to bow before the superior judgment of the Attorney General's office and recommend that the matters be taken up on the petition at the forthcoming November meeting, and that the petiition be granted and -the taxes cancelled. A cop,of this letter is being sent to Mr. E. C. Hotchkiss, Regional Attorney for the United States Department of; Agriculture who has contacted me in the matter. Yours very truly, lalt er Norlin District Attorney i Moved by.Bagstad and seconded by Moore to receive the foregoing communication and place on file. Carried.

The following budget report was. read: PROPOSED BUDGET REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1948 To the Honorable County Board of Supervisors Bayfield County. ANNUuL MEETING OF * THE BAY + I LD COUNTY BOARD November 13, 1947 Gentlemen: We submit the proposed budget for 1948 together with recommendations and comments as follows: The equalized value of the County has been increased over last years value by $1,820,215.00. One pereent limitation for County lax purposes of this item amounts to $18,202.15 which represents the additional tax that may be levied. There is a general increase in the budget items as a whole with some A(q-.Yfitems. added. Two of the larger increases undeiremtiiliitenahbe__�are Sanatorium and �,lelfare. As a general rule the larger our appropriation for Sanatorium is offset by a larger receipt of State .Aid. This, however is not true this year. The major item accounting for the increase in Sanatorium budget is for $10,'000:00 and covers a new drug called Streptomycin. ,The large increases in Welfare Department budgets -are offset to a great extent by increased aids from the State and Federal Govt's. After takings into consideration increased aids -it means a net increase over last years budget of 0"5,885.00. We have made a study of the feasability of installing an addr.esspgraph as ordered by the County Board. ?IVe made a trip to Superior and saw the machine in operation. This item has been set up under expenditures for outlay. Several other.items are included under Outlay -which were not feasable during the uar years. _Ye are supporting other recommendations by resolutions and ask your earnest consideration. We are recommending the purchase of excess d•elincsuent tax accounts covering sales of 1936, 1937 and 1938 which amounts to $7,205.58. This effects 7 out of 10 taxing districts having excess rolls. Said recommendation is supported by a seperate resolution. This will reduce auditing work by .18 tax .rolls. ace wish to reiterate that :any requests for funds should as a matter of good policy be first referred duo the finance Committee forconsideration, Budget STATE TAX: 1947 Recommended for 1948 Forestry Tax under Sec. 70.56 (2) This item does not effect the l%- County tax limit. $2,968.04 $3,320.60 GENERAL GOVERNMENT County Board 22800.00 22,800.00.
