Said property shall be a separate class

WHEREAS,
the person applying under this article shall provide
a written statement to the Commissioner of the

NOW
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Wise County

Further, it is ordained that Wise County
shall levy tax on the subject property not to
exceed that applicable to the general class of

The
