0 For Water and Sewer...
Cost: $270,000.00. Payment to be made over a 20-year period from proceeds received from water
and sewer users. Financing for this project to he by issuance of Revenue bonds. A small sewer charge
will be imposed and it is expected that present wat ?r rales will be approximately once again what water
users are now paying. Anticipated drop in insuran e rates in city, expected to be 10 to 20 percent, will
more than offset cost of entire project. No tax incre ise will incur through passage of this improvement.
0 For Airport Improvement. •
Cost: $40,000.00. To be financed through iss lance of General Obligation Bonds, payable over a
20-year period. Improvements made possible by this bond issue will bring the Wolf Point Municipal air
port up to Civil Aeronautics Commission requirements; will qualify Wolf Point for a federal grant of
$43,00u.00 under federal government’s planned program of airport development. Failure to approve the
airport bond would automatically disqualify Wolf Paint for any airport federal aid. Improvements in
the amount of $83,000.00 will also serve to assure W at Point and northeast Montana of continuation of
sc'i® airlines service. Under present airport co-diHons. and inadequacies, WOLF POINT COULD
BE THE FIRST CITY DROPPED FROM AIRLINES SCHEDULE! Actual cost would be sl.Bl per SIOO.OO
of taxes paid in 1951, with decrease as interest is paid off.
