Session "An Act relating to the taxation by cities, villages and boroughs of lands which are
rural in characte and not developed for commercial, industrial, or urban.residential purposes".
W. Ehrick said he thought this law might serve as a tool to encourage the annexation of large
areas which are earmarked for future development, whicl at the same time deferring a portion of
the tax load until municipal services become available; in essence, the law empowers a city to
declare that rural property annexed to the city will not benefit from muncicipai services as
much as urban areas and to lessen the undeveloped areas's tax load. No action was taken but
the City Clerk was instructed to send copies of this act to each.of the Aldermen and the Mayor.
