RAISE FUND FOR
SANITARY WORK
Highway Commissioner May Make
Use of Authority

Recent Investigations have disclosed
the fact that the commissioners of
highways of township has the au-
thority TO raise money for sanitary
work throughout the town. and il is
not unlikely that when the tax roll is
prepared next year Commissioner
Mugford OF Calumet will recommend
that from $4,000 To $4,000 be raised
for this purpose next year. In the
past this money has been taken from
the road repair fund which amounts TO
about $4,000 annually This tax is
raised on a basis of one-half of one
mill of each dollar of assessed vaua-
tion. As a result of applying about
$4,000 annually for sanitary work,
such as removing refuse from the
streets and alleys cleaning cutters and
bitches ana similar work, the funds
considerably reduced and i'm the last
few years has been barely sufficient.
In addition 10 the road repair fund
there mas been raised in the last three
fN''Hf Fff''' iVi INV tliSlNdN = III AIlt
farming districts. All of this money
has been extended with the exception
of portion of this years new road
fund.
An illustration of the amount OF
money required To keep the town clean
Is found i'm the fact that this spring
about $500 was expended for this pur-
pose i'm the Florida location and "A like
in Centennial Heights. Copper
city, Kearsarge location and other
parts of the township also shared in
thc disbursement and as "A result the
read repair fund is low. 1t is too late,
however. To raise fund for sanitary
purposes this year and the matter will
nave 10 be deferred until next year.
