Deficit Budget Struck for 1960 by City Council
City council set the 1960 mill rate at 50 mills raising taxes by about $3.50 for the average homeowner. The budget shows expenditures of 4.771 million and revenues of 4.723 million, yielding an estimated deficit of 48,249. The centennial mill was removed to fund a reserve, with possible use of surplus to backfill later. Public ownership of utilities helps offset the tax bite.
