Shackelford county voters will
go to the ten county voting boxes
Saturday of this week, April 21,
to decide whether or not the com
missioners' court will he permitted
to re-allocate the county tax mon-
ies.
If the election carries, it will not I
mean a change in amount of '
taxe levied, but will permit the
court to place more money in the
general fund and road and bridge
fund, and to reduce the perman-
ent building and jury fund-. In
the past the general fund has
hei n in the "red" most of each
year, while money has accumu-
lated in the jury and permanent
improvement fund. This bill i.- to
permit the court to use the tax
money to the better interest of the
counts. The general fund now
ha. greater demands than it did in
1 l 0l> when the allocation was e-
tabli lied.
The present allocation of tax
monies, which is set by lass at M)c
on the *100 valuation, is a fol-
lows: 2."ic for general county pur-
poses; lac road and bridge; la
jury fund; 2 lie permanent im-
provement fund.
The court i- a king the voters to
approve the following allocation
of tax monie-: lOc general coun-
ty fund; 20c road and bridge
fund; 15c building and permanent
improvement fund; and 5c jury
fund.
The court ha studied the need
of the county, and a-k the voter
to permit it to u.-e the counts
funds to the he t interest of the
county, and thi- can be done by
voting in favor of the re allnca
tion.
This re allocation of county tax
money was made possible lust Sep
temher when the people of the
state voted for a constitutional
amendment that permitted a coun-
ty to vote to re-alloc.ite its money
for a period of six year-. After
-ix years, anothei elect on mu-t be
held, or the old allocation will be
revertt ' \« automatically.
