THE MAIL-JOURNAL

Explain Cost Os Government

As clerk-treasurer of the town of Milford I have been asked to prepare a letter for publication to explain why our taxes went up so much this year. I have not recapped the entire budget for 1963 in the following explanation, I have only recapped the items which had a significant effect on it. There are three main items as far as appropriations are concerned which contribute to this increase. They are as follows: 1. NEW STREET LIGHTS: When these street lights were being considered the town board members were told by Northern I Indiana Public Service that the I cost to maintain them would be a- ■ bout the same as the old or slightly less. The lights this year will run approximately S2OOO more tjhan the old lights on previous years. A matter which is to be reviewed by the town board. 2. THE TOWN POLICE CAR: This car is two years old and has required extensive repairs over the past year including a new set of tires. In addition to this there has I been more patroling than in previous years. The actual expendi- | ture for 1962 was up about SBOO, i however, we only raised the budiget approximately SSOO over 1962. A new police car as well as radio equipment has been budgeted ‘for 1962. The police car is two years old and in pretty bad shape. The radio equipment was purchased used, and has been requiring a considerable amount of maintenance in the last six months. Fifteen hundred dollars has been appropriated for this equipment, an increase of SIOOO over 1962. 3. S A L A R Y INCREASES: There was SI4OO in salary increases for 1963. The largest increase was SBOO to the street and water commissioner Marion Deeter. This will increase his salary to S4OOO. Half of this amount, however, will be taken out of the water fund which is “self sustaining.” In previous years this entire amount was taXen out of the street and general fund. By taking half out of the water fund we have cut SI7OO out of the general fund and increased the street fund S3OO. As you can see these three items are not the largest contributing factors to the tax increase. The fact is that over the past several years we have had tax cuts by the state in both the general and street funds. The working balance in the street department at the. end of 1962 will be zero. This means that except for approximately S4OOO additional revenue from the state, which will be coming in, we will have to levy all of the street fund, or approximately $9,500. The general fund working capitol has been depleted by approximately one-half of what it should be. This working capitol must also be brought back up to the proper level. As you have probably heard by now the taxes for Milford have been cut in the street and general fund from $3.17 to $2.65. This was not due to error or oversight on the town board’s part. This was possible because of a suggestion from the state board to build up the working capitol in the general fund over a three-year period instead of trying to build it up in one year. If there are any questions on the above items, please feel free to contact me and I will do my best to Answer them. Frank D.
