CITY IS OVER BONDING LIMIT.
Excess is About $4,000, But Some
Bonds Haven't Seer Issued.

Detroit is placed in a rather awk-
ward position by the tact that the
bonds now outstanding and those au-
thorized TO be issued total more than
the two per cent Of the assessed val
uation allowed by the present city
charter. In consequence, II will be
necessary TO either delay the building
of the west-side bath house or else
10 buy something less than 100000
worth OF voting machines. II the cour-
Gil finally discovers satisfactory type
OF machine.
According TO the controllers an
nual balance, just issued. the city has
an assessed valuation Of s35S.sl9.9l0
and a debt limit Of s7.1s6.39S The
net debt outstanding and the bonds
authorized would total $7,325,lSS. In
Guided In this list OF bonds authorized
is the $4,000 allowed for a garbage
reduction plant which have never been
and may never be issued. Counting
this batch OF bonds out. there is left
a difference OF s2S,7S9 between the
bonds which are 10 be Issued and the
present debt limit.
This Is not very serious situation
since the voting machines need not
necessarily be paid for until some
time mex: year. II is entirely possible
that the city may vote, whenever a
special election Is held. 70 increase the
bonding limit as provided for by the
new constitution. Such an increase
may be two per cent or any part
thereof.
The city has on hand In cash in
treasury July /, sl,95l,566.65 and iu
the sinking fund cash and securities
amounting to s2.s26,3lS.49 The out.
standing bonds of the city in add
ton to water bonds and special assess
ment bonds. total S8,749 600.
