Dimmitt Plans Bond Election for Street Work and Equipment
The Dimmitt city commission has called a $50,000 bond election for January 9 to fund street repair construction and maintenance equipment. The issue would be repaid by new city sales tax income, with seven year bonds maturing in 1978 alongside other tax bonds. Sales tax approved last April will yield about $80,000 annually, beginning with quarterly payments in 97.
