City Council Sees Tax Levy Stay High This Year
The city council cannot cut the municipal levy of twenty five million on $3.5 million plus property due to extraordinary treasury demands. About $3,500 to $4,000 was spent in the year on urgent needs including $2,000 tied to the Royal Gorge park and land, surveying, attorney fees, and litigation. Other allocations funded Coal Creek Relief, moving Tri-Bullion smelter to Canon City, and Arkansas river clarification. If surprises are avoided, a levy reduction may occur next year.
