Elwood City Hosts First Reading On Tax Ordinance
Elwood city council will review the 1985 budget and tax levy at the regular monthly meeting. The final levy depends on assessed valuations from Gladys Land, city treasurer, with rates around 2.05 dollars per thousand if valuations rise. 1.92 to 2.04 expected. Firemen seek a pay raise, Callaway Park pool remains unfunded, and officials note reduced payroll balances require keeping taxes steady to cover departmental costs.
