Elyra Reviews Income and Plans 825000 Funding Request

Elyma's 1937 financial tangle to be clarified today and tomorrow with a proposed 825000 general fund appropriation ordinance heading to Monday council action. Finance Committee meets at 10 30 am to prepare a final recommendation for council action as Victor F Stewart Jr and Mayor J Grant Keys present the city's supplemental tax certificate to raise funds to about 825000 for the county budget commission. The certificate follows a review of city income in 1936 1953 and 1954. the 1957 org tax certificate totalled 754000, about 75000 short of proposed needs. Keys cited stronger revenue in late 1956 as the basis for revision. a temporary appropriation covered expenses through Q1 while the full year budget must pass by April 1. The 70k gap can be met by higher city revenue estimates from court fees permits licenses and other taxes. The original 1957 budget set expenses at 1260000 but relied on a four mill operating levy that failed in the November election, forcing a close to 490000 deficit when an appropriation ordinance was prepared. Major cuts targeted capital projects such as jail remodeling expanding fire and police strength, new equipment, and park board improvements.
