City Considers Bond Issue to Cover Deficits
City officials contemplate another bond issue of 80 000 to cover deficits in operations including lighting, health board and 1928 lighting bills. The move faces a small bonding margin of 2 800 000 with 10 911 000 already bonded. Officials prefer temporary loans to limit tax impact, while some advocate bonds to avoid 1931 tax rise.
