Water Rate Increase Deferred by City Officials
Major Masset and aldermen postponed any change in city water rates until early winter with rates to take effect in April 1932. Officials fear a hasty revision would fail to be fair or workable, given bond obligations, salaries, and upkeep costs. A self sustaining water system is sought, with an estimated 1/4 to 1/3 rate rise to cover expenses and avoid tax reliance. Several meetings focused on the issue, aiming to establish rates within three weeks before tax adjustments.
