A STATEMENT OF THE MAYOR
AND CITY COUNCIL RELATIVE
TO THE PROPOSED ISSUE OF
SEWER BONDS
The Tax payers of Wagner:-There
has been some misunderstanding and
DO many inquiries relative to the po-
sition Of the Mayor and City Council
regarding the proposed issue of sewer
bonds to be voted upon next Tuesday,
that l have thought it best to make a
public statement explaining the po-
sition of myself and the position
of the city Council IS far q I under
stand the same, upon this question.
Some time ago the City Council
were petitioned by a very large num-
Der of the residents Of the cit, to take
some action regarding putting in a
system of sewerage that would accom-
adate the City. There being nc avail
able funds in the City Treasury for
this purpose and the laws of this state
authorizing the City Council to issue
bond for the purpose of sewerage, it
was deemed advisable by the City
Council to call an election to vo e upon
the question of issuing bonds for this
purpose.
THE BOND ISSUE WILL NOT IN
CREASE TAXATION EXCEPT FOR
THOSE DIRECTLY BENEFITED.
The interest on the sewerage bonds
will be assessed against the property
n directly benefited by the
sewer. The laws Of this state, being
Chapt.. 1853. of the Session laws Of
the year 1905 specifically provide and
make it mandatory upon the City
Council to levy q tax; were against
the property owners directly benefit.
ted by the sewerage in proportion te
the benefits which they derive there.
from. In other words where the
sewerage runs directly past OF contigu'
ous to property owned by a property
owner his sewer tax would natur.
ally be higher than the " tax of I
property owner 800 feet O more

paid for any lot then was $50. The
