School Board
Asking For
New Tax Levy

Port Clinton school district
voters will be asked in Nov
ember to approve both a re-
newal of the three mill levy
for school operating costs,
and an additional one mill levy
for the same purpose.
A resolution authorizing the
levies was passed Thursday night
by school board members. The ad-
ditional one-mill levy, explained
Superintendent d. d. Sims, is ne
cessitated by provisions of a re-
cent state law that says school dis
tricts must have a minimum ten
mill levy for operating expenses
in the calendar year of 1855 before
the district can receive additional
aid from the state school founda-
tion program.
State aid here this past year
totalled $4,000, a sum which will
be lacking unless the additional
one mill levy is approved. Current
school operating expenses levy is
9.4 mills.

Time Asked
Study
Proposal

Although city council Tues
day night heard the first
reading of a proposed new
gas rate ordinance, actual vot-
ing on the measure was post
poned for two weeks to give
the solons additional time to study
contemplated increases.
Decision to delay voting on the
proposition was reached following
a discussion, part of which center
ed around newspaper clipping
datelined April from Columbus
which indicated Gas Company GUS
toners were due for lower rates
as result of government order
granting the utility refund from
one of its suppliers.
Negotiations with the firm have
been carried on for some time by
council committee headed by An
drew KaStro
In stating their case, gas COM
pany SpokeSmen said 1--WE are not
asking nearly what we're entitled
to j. all we want is some relief"
Councilman Charles Ruddock
said he is convinced that the gas
company is entitled to an increase,
but not one as high as that pro-
posed in the ordinance under con-
sideration.
The gas company representative
said the proposed ordinance is
based on 1858 costs and explained
'if we don't get together now, we
can come back in sc and then we
would predicate our proposal on
1855 costs"
Although the company was en-
titled to an increase On April 7 of
this year under terms of an ex-
listing contract, old rates still ap-
ply due to negotiations for new
ordinance.
Rates in effect now are 20 cents
per hundred cubic feet for the
first 500 cubic feet, minimum ST.;
6 cents per 100 cubic feet for the
next 4500 cubic feet; 5h cents per
100 cubic feet for all in excess of
5000 cubic feet.
If new ordinance is not passed,
the following rates will apply un-
der existing contract: 20 cents per
100 for the first 500 cubic feet.
