Powerview Council Faces Tax Arrears And 1962 Plans
The Powerview council opened 1962 with notes on $27,000 in unpaid 1961 taxes carried to the 1962 roll, reduced cash assets due to higher 1961 school levies, and a proposal to keep the 1962 business tax at 8 percent. They appointed staff and committees, approved police protection renewal, and authorized tenders for seven parcels of village land and for Rudolph Daoust’s estate personal effects, with two bids for land and buildings to be torn down.
