Athens Faces Financial Strain Over 1922 Levy Shortfall
Athens confronts a looming operating deficit as the 1922 tax levy yields only 42 600, leaving under 4 000 for city operations. Street lighting costs exceed 5 000 annually and the service department runs about 26 000, with 8 000 from automobile license fees reducing it to 18 000, still far above total city funds. Sinking fund charges were cut from 48 842 79 to 38 42 79, leaving 16 947 64 plus about 14 000 in securities, but even using all cash and investments leaves a ~7 100 short for this year. Refunding bonds of 20 000 each are due in 1924 and 1926, with interest and other bonds next year, prompting officials to ask where operating funds will come from. The sinking fund trustees Fred L Alderman W B Golden John Preston and Scott Haney plan a meeting to seek a solution amid long‑standing council acquiescence to improvements.
