City Budget Outlook Shared By Mayor At Rotary Luncheon
At a Rotary Club luncheon honoring city leaders, Mayor Bullivant outlined the sinking fund plan and debt progress. Debenture debt fell from 4,368,520 in 1926 to 3,435,835 at end of 1933, with 643,000 to be shaved in 1934 for a net 2,792,835. The city also paid on annuity bonds and plant costs, noting the power plant was not capitalized. For 1934, liabilities require a 30,000 reduction in estimates, and debentures due in 1938 amount to 104,005.86, with other annual maturities listed through 1941, suggesting limited near term capacity to rebuild the sinking fund, though over 200,000 would remain after meeting liabilities by end-1934.
