He cited Rockdale’s $140,000 in county taxes supporting about $81,000 in county funds and services, plus $7,889 last year for rural fire fighting and $800 annually paid by the county. Uncollected ambulance fees totaled $5,300 for out-of-town service in 1974-75. The county judge said funds rely on taxes and fees and warned cities may borrow via FHA bonds. he cited fuel for road projects and noted no tax increases. Other business included a bid to Audis Lovelady for a collapsed tank car at $1.75 per cwt and a study of a late-hours bar request at Milano.
