The city commission NOV
ed last week to call for bids
on some 25 miles of first
class" paving after Com
missioner Louis Carbonell
said that he believed the es-
timated money could be bor-
rowed using the city's future
cigarette tax receipts as COL
lateral.
They also directed the city ma
mayer to determine how the work
could be financed.
City Finance Director Craig
Bowen said today that he contact
ed McCreedy, who arranged for the
sale of a million-dollar sewer re-
venue bond issue last year and
McCreedy answered that in his
opinion, and that Of New York and
Chicago bond attorneys. a cigarette
tax revenue bond issue could be
hoated.
Chief bone Of contention was
the question Of what would hap
pen In the event the state aban-
donsd the cigarette tax. The city
annually receives more than
100 thousand dollars from that
source. The money can be used
only for street repairs in This
county.
McCreedy pointed out that IL the
state discarded the tax, a move
which he termed unlikely" the
city could assess their own cigs-
rette levy. (Key West had such a
tax in effect before the state took
it over.)
81 think it would serve in your
case much better than it would in
many other Florida municipalities
due to the fact that you are sep
arated from other political sub-di-
visions more completely than most
cities. Consequently, a local Gig
arctic tax ordinance in Key West
would be reasonably effective if
the legislature ever removed the
state tax. | think that it is very
unlikely that it ever will be re-
moved and if it ever should be,
think the legislature will be forced
by expediency to provide some
other sort of revenue because the
cigarette tax receipts are very i'm
portant to our municipalities" Nc
Greedy said in his letter.
He also pointed out that HE
