City Tax Rate Lower Won't Hurt City Finances
City Clerk C S Vedder calculated the combined state county and city tax at .015 percent on a city valuation of 931 000, setting the city tax bill at 42 550.74. The county board apportioned state tax 3 242.65, county 1 094.08, county superintendent 288.12, soldiers relief 58.32, local fund 141.81, and school tax 51, totaling 12 934.41. The city faces a heavier rate yet a per capita school tax returns funds to the city. Also noted, the Masons elected officers at Wednesday evening meeting.
