Supervisors Silent on Budget Talks in Linn County
County recorder E F Pat Kane accuses Linn County supervisors of uncommunicative behavior as budget talks move through a five member review panel. The proposed 1988 budget totals 37.95 million with a 10 percent tax rate increase, while Kane seeks 22 thousand more to cover rising costs and promises offsetting income to avoid higher taxes. Kane cites 105 thousand in additional recorder revenues since November 1985, and notes other officials face similar constraints.
