Tax Rate At 5.50 5.65 Budget Figures Revealed
Finances Chairman Milton B. anford described the 1952 municipal budget as very tentative. Despite a $1.3 million rise in new ratables and $400,000 higher anticipated revenue, the focal purpose tax will dip about $11,000 from last year while the tax rate rises 20 to 35 points mainly due to the Board of Education budget. The plan funds a $200 wage rise, recreation board increase to $18,500, a $30,000 civic center down payment, library hike to $19,000, and $5,000 for Planning Board. The committee weighs state tax equalization plans and schedules a water-system conference to review cost figures and pursue a supplemental appraisal if needed.
