The chairman of the Hyde County Board of Commissioners, David
Styron, said Sunday that the property tax rate for Ocracoke Island
could drop as much as 20 cents in 1995. Styron was quoted in
Sunday's paper, saying that the 1994 tax rate of $1.05 could not
drop more than 5 cents this year. ``Based on my current
projections,'' Styron said Sunday, ``I don't see how the tax rate
could get below 85 cents for 1995 assessments.''
