Hearing Set
On Proposed
City Budget
City Manager Clyde Emmons
has recommended to the city
council a combined General Fund
and Water and Sewer Fund bud-
get for the City of McKinney for
the 1962-63 fiscal year of $740,-
273.62. Emmons, at the same
time, recommended that the cur-
rent tax rate of $1.47 per $100
valuation, based on 50 per cent
of the true market value of real
and personal property, be retain-
ed.
The council has called a bud-
get hearing to be held on Thurs-
day evening, August 30, at 7:30
p. m.
The council passed the appro-
priation ordinance on first read-
ing at its regular meeting.
The aggregate sum of the Gen-
eral Fund, as recommended by
Emmons, was $461,532.65, an in-
crease of $13,450.82 over that of
the present year. This increase
was made necessary by an in-
crease in debt service require-
ments of $9,652.09 due to the
sale of the remaining $230,000 of
the original million dollar 1957
street bond issue, the addition of
one man to the police force, a
full-time fire marshal and the
need of additional money for
parks and recreation.
The budget includes $278,740.97
for the Water and Sewer depart-
ment and takes into considera-
tion an item of $4500 for installa-
tion of concrete pipe conduits
under the proposed Highway 75
for future water extensions and
the purchase of a site for the fu-
ture construction of a million
and one-half gallon elevated wat-
er storage tank which is needed
at the present time and which
will be necessary to the future
growth of McKinney, Emmons
said.
