Walmart Inc. sues 32 Colorado counties to shrink tax bills
DURANGO, Colo. (AP) — The parent company of Walmart has sued dozens of counties in Colorado in a bid to reduce its tax bills.
The Durango Herald reports that county assessors are tasked with taking inventory of businesses’ assets and determining the items’ value.

Corporate officials say the lawsuit seeks to reduce the value of its personal property at 95 of its stores and recoup attorney fees.
