Thirteen Instead of Fifteen
Mills Likely to Be Basis
Adopted.
TWELVE-MILL SCHEDULE
REGARDED AS TRIFLE LOW
Would Give Municipality Prac-
tically No Margin; Estimates
Board Completes Work.

The city's tax levy for the present year
will In oil probability be 13 mills. This
has not yet been definitely decided upon
by tho board OF estimates and appor-
tlonment. but from the present outlook
II is practically certain that IT, Will be
no more. The board has even had under
consideration n 12-mill tax levy. but 1t is
feared that this would not give the city
sufficient revenue. The levy is ct nres-
ent 10 mills
At It's meeting in Mayor Bransford's
office Tuesday afternoon. the board COM
pleted It's allowance to city departments
For the current year. $685. 1874 SO IS al
lowed all city departments. Under the
item or statutory and general. which In
cludes court costs. outside Of the city
court and the attorneys office, attorney
fees. Ltigat!ons. refund on licenses, pen
sions; refunds OF various sorts. deten-
tion home. interest on city bonds and the
like. the board allowed S2s7 .099.01.
The board allowed Sl02.25a ,66 for street
signs. crosswalks. paving and sidewalk
repairs. crossing repairs, balances due
on sidewalk and paving extensions. and
so on.
1t is estimated that the city's revenue
on a Emil basis would be S1.402. .236. 25.
Under the present schedule OF estimates
and appointments this would leave the
city only sl2S,000. This. 1t Is thought.
would hardly be sufficient, so II will un-.
douhtcdly mean that the levy will be 13
mills.
At the present time there Is pending
in the courts a case In which Judgment
was rendered against the city and In
favor Of the East Jordan canal owners
for $4,000; The case involves certain
condemnation proceedings instituted by
the city The city appealed TO the su-
preme court from the judgment OF the
lower court and the Judgment may be
reversed. But In the event Ii Is not. the
city must pay the amount, and 1t can
not afford TO tie itself UP too tight by
too great a reduction In the levy. 1t Is
pointed out.
