Property tax checks on time
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Marion County will get the biggest piece of the pie and Ohio County the smallest when the state sends out $153.4 million in property tax checks Friday. Despite Indiana's financial woes. Gov. Robert D. Orr announced Monday the state will pay its final fall property tax installment on time. Checks will be mailed Friday to treasurers of Indiana's 92 counties. Democrats have warned that declining tax revenues jeopardize the state's commitment to property tax relief. According to Budget Agency projections, the fund will be broke by June 30. Democrats predict the crisis for the property tax replacement fund will come in the spring, when the state must

owned grain elevator. Owned and managed my own business. Worked at Putnam County Hospital for past 11 years. 2. If I am elected to the recorder’s office, the first thing that I will do is analyze which aspects of the office can be made more effective and efficient. At that point I will be willing to work and communicate with everyone who does business with that office to decide what changes, if any, need to be made. As I said in announcing my candidacy, I intend to make the recorder’s office the most efficient office in the courthouse, at the least possible cost to the taxpayer.
2. Domestic violence includes family quarrels, child abuse and juvenile delinquency. When domestic violence erupts we are sometimes called upon to give a simple solution to a complex problem. Police have very few options in dealing with these situations. Volunteers, counselors. church groups, teachers and social workers are needed
make its March payment to counties. Payments must be delayed, they say. unless the state raises taxes to get the necessary funds to make them. Twenty-seven counties will get more than $1 million from the state in this distribution The biggest outlays are to: Marion County, $27.3 million; Lake County. $22.8 million; Allen County. $8.3 million; St. Joseph County, $7.35 million; Vanderburgh County. $4.5 million; Porter County. $4.05 million; and Elkhart County, $3.9 million. The smallest check for $59,345 is going to Ohio County in Indiana’s southeast corner. Friday’s distribution will bring the total fall property tax relief payments to $206.6
to help guide and support these individuals. These resources are available in Putnam County by the system often fails because citizens refuse to get involved. Early detection may prevent domestic problems from becoming violent crimes. Police share the responsibility with the above agencies to help prevent violence through detection and guidance. 3. If elected sheriff I would pursue the following: (1) Continue to improve the current community awareness programs in existence. (2) Work with private citizens to help them protect themselves and their property. (3) Establish a monthly meeting with all other police agencies to coordinate information on all active investigations. (4) Encourage advance training for all personnel to keep them current and updated in all aspects of police work and investigations. (5) Continue to work with young adults in drug education and prevention. These efforts would speed up criminal apprehensions and make patrol efforts more productive. Democrat GERALD A. HOFF A 1.

million. The state payments, funded by half of the revenues from the 4 percent sales and corporate income taxes, compensate counties for tax revenues lost as a result of the 1973 property tax relief program. Under that program, the state pays 20 percent of every property owner's tax bill. The property tax replacement fund also pays a portion of the state’s contribution for local school finance. Homeowners also get a homestead tax credit, but that tax break is due to expire in 1985. Of the October installment. $138.4 million represents a payment toward the 20 percent property tax credit and sls million represents the 6 percent homestead credit.

radar, hypnosis, jail operations. 2. A domestic or family fight is one call that most policemen don’t like to get. We are called on to be referee, preacher, psychiatrist all at once. The only thing we end up to be is the bad guy because someone won’t be happy with our decision. To answer these types of calls we, the police, must be armed with information on where to send the people involved to best take care of their problem. Putnam County is blessed with Cummins Mental Health, a fine Child Welfare Department, and a fine substance abuse program to help combat some of these problems. 3. For law enforcement officers to be effective they must have the respect and confidence of the public. With the general public funneling information about crime to the police, we are better able to investigate crimes that have been committed. The need for good police-community relations is increasing with the increase in rural crime. Also, much needed in Putnam County is a better system of communication among the various police agencies. All departments must get along in order for needed information to be passed along.
