A Sound Business Proposition for State Capitol Bonds

An editorial touts a $33.5 million capitol bond plan to fund a new state house and grounds, with $200,000 for ground purchases and $5,000,000 to complete rebuilding. It argues thirteen annual payments of about $209,230 per year are affordable, costing only cents per taxpayer, and links the August election to a larger $5.5 million plan if adopted, claiming net savings of $1.6 million in principal and interest.

It calls readers into the fight to support the smaller bond option.
