The resolution, approved by
the council. raises water rates
from IS to q maximum of 40
cent? per 1000 gallons. The
council called for a comprehen.
sive study before the new rate
goes into effect January 1.
At first blush, on hastily.con-
cocted figures, this appeared to
allow a tax rate Of SO cents,
which would be a three-cent tax
cut and 10 cents less than asked
by City Manager Walter A.
Scheiber.
Further computations, how.
ever, showed the tax must hold
to u cents to balance the bud.

In Gaishersburg
TO1Un Heads OK First
Tar Hike Since 1910

The Gaithersburg town
tax rate is up 10 cents this
year - the first increase in
nearly half a century.
The Town Council last week
approved a hike to go cents
from so cents, the level at
which it had stayed since 1910.
The new rate is needed to
meet a 1959.60 budget of $780,
900, approved by the Council
in an emergency ordinance
adopted one day before the be-
ginning of the new fiscal year.
The budget includes a bond
issue OF $175,00O that will be
used to finance an extensive
street improvement and storm
drainage program. Last year,
when no bonds were issued, the
total town budget was only
$4,000.
Town Clerk Lewis Sweadner
cited the following expendi-
lures as big factors behind the
increased tax rate:
Debt service on the bond
issue, $1,000.
. Payment on the Lefebure
property purchased last year
for a civic center site, $13,750.
. Increases In salaries and
wages and employment Of adj
ditional personnel, abou t
$4,000.
On the revenue side, the 60
cent take rate will bring in
about S45, based on an esti-
mated SIS million assessable
base The base figure repre-
sents an increase Of about 81
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1959-07-09

million over last year.
Personal property taxes will
add another $4,000; State.
shared revenue, $4,000; licenses
and permits, $500.
Details of the bond issue
were worked out with a citizens
committee composed Of repre-
sentatives of various local or.
CARNATIONS.
Sweadner said the decision
to float the bonds was based on
heavy citizen demand for street
improvements and storm drain
age.
The drainage problem has
become more acute because OF
recent construction develop
ments in the area. Little street
improvement has been done in
recent years, except for main
tenance.
