City to Ask Boost in Park Fund Levy
City officials plan a push to raise park funding after a November statement showed the park fund $77.35 overdrawn with four months left in the year. Only 7 eighths of a mill is allowed for parks, insufficient for Cedar Rapids parks covering 450 acres, prompting a renewed effort during the legislative session to raise the levy. The parks department budgeted $37,326 for the year, with last year requiring a $5,700 loan from waterworks and sewer funds. Officials expect higher property values to boost next year’s receipts, while November results show total funds available of $379,286.77, November receipts $335,672.66, disbursements $425,249.41, and cash balance $360,540.18.
