A camr.^unication was received from the County Counsel's of- fice by Gordon Boller, Deputy, to the effect that cl~~.ims have been. filed wi th the county by F. J. tiilright and Merman Goldberg for refunds on ac- count of aver-collection in ye=ar 1929 in Acquisition and Improvement Districts 15 and 17 because of erroneous assessed valuatiax~submitted by the County of Las Angeles fora lesser amount than really existed and therefore the rate was establishe;~ in excess of actual requirements on actual assessed valuations and therefore X8.721.99 over collection was received from said bistricts, and the amount of the claims are for the amount exacted from the claimants by reason of the rate being higher than necessary and a l.e~gal argument in support thereof has been addressed to Dynwaod's City Attorney, stating that they have refrained from allow- ing the claims,and if same are not paid they are assured that suit will be instituted, requesting that if the Council ti~ishes to reject the claims that they sa notify the County, and they ~i.ll take like action, but stat- ing that they expect the City to appear and defend in their behs~,lf the action which will then fallow. City Treasurer Reed addressed the Council stating that he recommends that the refund request be rejected as he believes it to be a tax racket, and that he has conferred wit~i the City of South Gate who are also interested in the matter, and they take the same po._~ition and will help resist any action to force collection. TuTr. Reed also stated that the scare that the law fire: that is threatening suit raised, that the levy was not legal because the County should have set the rate in lieu of the City is without foundation as the Board. of Supervisors also included all our districts in fixing their rates, a,nd the two dis- trict in a,uestion were also included by the County. City Attorney Hubbard addressed the Council advising that he believed that the Council should net reject the claims, but should ignore the matter and take no action in the matter whatsoever. l'hereupan it was moved by Councilm~.n Snyder and seconded by Councilman vJright that the Council go on record o}~~posing any action in the mat -er of said claims by the County Counsel's office, or by the County of Zos Angeles at this time.
