to complain because it does not
appear that he is a citizen of the
City. 1t is admitted that he is a
taxpayer of the City. 1t seems
to me the question was determin-
ed adversely to the defendants in
Brumby's case lat Ga. 592. Fur
thermore the legislation with re-
ference to this Board shows large
bond issues authorized for the
City of Marietta, on long terms
not yet matured. There bonds
mere authorized for the purpose
of acquiring the very properties
now being operated by this Board
and we may safely conclude that
these bonds are still outstanding
and that the principal and inter-
Test will have to be paid by the
taxes levied upon all the proper
ties within the City. 1t would be
a singular situation if the proper
ties in the City have to bear the
burdens>of this taxation but that
the owners could not be heard to
complain at the income of the pro-
perties being illegally distributed.
In my opinion the contention is
not sound.
Moreover if the income from
these properties is illegally used,
the rates to customers are liable
to be increased and the rents of
properties in the City be depress-
ed thereby. If, as argued in be-
half of defendants, this Board can
fix any amount of compensation
for its treasurer without giving
right of complaint to tax payers,
then the values of properties in
the City may be reduced thereby.
The argument of Council means
that no one but a patron of the
Board can be heard to complain.
and if that is sound he need not
own a dollars worth of property.
The contention cannot be sound.
see no difficulty in a new par
ty being added to the petition and
overrule defendants objections
thereto.
do not find it necessary to
consider the petitioners conten-
ton that the Act of 1906 is uncon-
stitutional wherein it provides
that the chairman of the commit
tee on Water and Lights of the
City Council should be a member
of the Board and that, therefore,
W. G. Carriker is unauthorized to
act as member of the Board. No
ruling is made on this contention.
