Water ownership plan favoring municipal system costs and bonds
The Water Question argues that municipal ownership will require bonds voted by the people to build or buy the plant. Consumers would pay current water charges plus a sinking fund to cover bond payments, totaling less than private ownership. The city would fund hydrant rentals and school water costs via a dedicated fund, not raising city taxes. The Journal-World backs purchasing parts of the Water Company under franchise and expanding the system to meet city needs, noting future rate adjustments if costs rise and criticizing the current rate as unreasonable.
