City Increases Tax Rate and Revises Zoning
The City Commission approved raising the tax rate to £1.95, about 75 percent for salaries and 25 percent for equipment and operating costs. Seventy cents funds government operations and 38 cents covers interest and sinking fund. 361 Van Buren Street and 313 West Thirty-Sixth Avenue were rezoned to apartment districts amid one protest. A Washington Street paving petition with cost not exceeding $1.30 per front foot and concrete curb shitter was noted as WPA backed. An informal ordinance would prohibit fireworks sales and use within the city limits.
