County levies cut and sinking fund proposed by Madigan
Ed Madigan treasurer outlines a plan to levy a sinking fund to retire maturing bonds within five years. County levies total 5 mills this year, with 1 mill for drainage dropped after juror review. A 2 mill increase is avoided by retrenchment, and a sinking fund funded annually could save over 1 percent in interest, targeting bonds due 1926 to 1929.
