Industrial Fund drives city sales to prospects
The Industrial Fund is cited as the most effective method to attract industry. Chanute did not levy until this year. Instead, 3500 dollars were moved from utilities revenue to the Industrial Fund. The 2 mill levy this year would raise about 4900 dollars, roughly 1400 dollars more than past transfers.
Industrial Fund Promotes Attracting New Industry
The article notes over 10000 spent on industrial sites in two years under a new law allowing up to 1 mill. Cities use industrial funds for brochures promotions and repairs. It cites 7600 spent in 1958 on Burlington Manufacturing Plant improvements and highlights Aeroduct's Chanute location as a factor.
