Offshore Leasing Hit

COURT HOUSE - Democratic candidate for freeholder Jim lannonehas made clear his opposition to Interior Secretary James Watt's proposal to lease certain off-shore tracts to oil companies for oil and natural gas exploration “It is imperative that we take a firm stand against any proposal that may jeopardize the quality of

our ocean waters,” lannone said. ''Unlimited drilling off the Jersey coast represents a potential threat to ^Cape May County's jpoto-r^yaluable resource. ^ " lannone said that he did not feel that Governor Kean will be as strong as he should be on this issue and that the county, along with the mayors of coastal communities should join the state in support of the suit against the federal government.

To Update Appraisals AVALON - The borough has entered into a contract with Appraisal Surveys, Inc., a New Jersey real estate appraisal firm, to conduct a tax equalization program for all land and improvements within the Borough, in accordance with a directive from the County Board of Taxation. Property in the borough has been increasing in value and in many instances the increase has not been the same for varying types of property and neighborhoods. Property owners will be receiving a letter from Appraisal Surveys, Inc. in August, notifying them of the approximate time appraisers will be in their neighborhood to inspect and measure their property. IT IS REQUESTED that if a property is rented, the owner notify the tenant to allow the inspection. Company representatives will be carrying letters of identification signed by borough officials, along with company badges. The purpose of the tax equalization program is to update present assessments (established In 1975) to their current market value as of Oct. l, 1983, and thus distribute the tax burden equitably among property owners throughout the borough. The project will not be completed until the fall of

1983.
