Standing Up for Indianapolis Votes to Keep Mayor Bookwalter
The taxpayer, most affected by municipal election outcomes, touts Mayor Bookwalter’s fiscal record. He notes the city’s empty treasury, high debt, and reliance on temporary loans when the new administration began, but credits the current mayor with paying off floating debt, reducing bonded debt, finishing improvements, rebuilding key avenues, constructing fire stations, securing a million-dollar interurban terminal, and lowering the tax levy. The taxpayer insists on maintaining the current administration to preserve Indianapolis’s improved credit and finances.
