Taxpayer letter warns Cedar Rapids bridge vote hide bond risks
A Cedar Rapids reader attacks the Benton street bridge bond proposal and temperance motives behind the campaign. He claims council action promises a completion dependent on stipulations, warns mayor can issue bonds independently, and urges voters to scrutinize motives and the true public interest. He links credit schemes to tax impact and urges vigilance ahead of the municipal election.
