City tax plan debate ties bonds to tax relief
City officials and residents debate financing a proposed 1949 plan with bonds or higher taxes. Supporters argue bonds offer lower interest and save taxpayers amid mortgages and installment debt, while opponents fear larger long term costs. A compromise suggests a gradual tax rise with early bond issuance to smooth the transition. The 1949 proposed expenditure totals 1,386,427 dollars, up 225,114 from 1958, with 82,565 more for bond interest and 90,854 from a resurfacing levy.
