City Assets and Streets Critique of March 1916–1918
Public records show a net city balance of 114,552.00 on March 1, 1916, and 102,020.00 on March 1, 1918, a reported net shortage under the present administration despite higher poll tax receipts and tax levies. The Streets section accuses the administration of ineffective street care, criticizing the flusher, catch basins, and a portable Asphalt Repair Plant as costly and underutilized, with calls for proper equipment and independent paving repairs.
