Pendleton Charter Amendments propose water bonds and sinking fund
The Common Council orders a May 9 1911 special election to vote yes or no on an initiative charter amendment authorizing bonds up to 200000 for a gravity water works system and a separate measure to set sinking funds from gross water rents and extend sewer bonds. The measures include detailed ballot wording and progress through Oregon law dating back to 1880 with city of Pendleton history and prior elections. The initiative petitions and text describe bond issues, sinking funds, and tax considerations for Pendleton.
