Burgus Flushes Out a Path to Cedar Rapids Incinerator
Cedar Rapids Finance Commissioner L. D. Burgus argues against rejecting a $62,000 PWA grant for a garbage incinerator near the sewage plant. He claims savings from shorter hauls and reduced sludge disposal, while opponents warn of higher bonds if the grant is lost. Burgus concedes a possible tax-levy impact but sees a route to keeping taxes steady.
