RICHVALE TU Many questions were raised, which Mr. Bailey answered. It has been established that front- age tax must be paid whether the water is used or not and the mill rate will cover the en- tire area. Mr. J. McCarthy ask- ed if the water committee could guarantee a sufficient supply of water without any more raising of taxes. Mr. Nunn wished to know what assurance the tax- payers have that assessments won’t be raised, during the 20- debenture period. It is expect- ed that if assessments go up, the water rate will go down. Mr. L. Morris felt the frontage tax was much too low, as people with vac cant land can double its value. Accept Report Owing to the expansion of the original water area, more capi- tal is needed, therefore anyone who signed the original water petition may now withdraw their names if they wish, otherwise they must accept rates now sug- gested. Mr. Bailey spoke on the de- velopment of the well on Carr- ville Rd. and said the area would be serviced from May Ave. in .the north to Uplands subdviis- ion in the south. with service on nearly all intervening streets.
