Freeholders canvassed on tax plan for erosion district
Edmondson describes a proposal to fund a county erosion district via a city general fund payment to avoid showing taxes on residents bills. Outside city property would carry a one tenth of one mill levy, a $3000 lot pays 30 cents, a $12000 property pays $1.20. Bonds could be sold at four and a half percent or less for up to 30 years. A freeholders vote or county board resolution could establish the district under 1963 law, avoiding a referendum and allowing year end setup.
