CITY WAY BREAK
: EVENFORPERIOD
Uncollected Taxes Amount
To Only About $5,000
For Past Year
If last minute collections are suf
ficient by the end of this month, the
City of Henderson expects almost to
break even In Its operating coats for
the fiscal year, which ends June 30.
It was said at tne city clerk's office
today that uncollected tax as for 1931
amount to only about 35-000. represent
ing only six or seven percent of the
approximately $85,000 property taxes
that were assessed for the year. That
Is considered a highly creditable show
ing in view of the depressed condi
tion of business in general.
Drastic economies already have
been ordered by the City Council for
the fiscal year beginning July 1. and
It is believed that, even with the
shrinkage in values of property, the
tax rate may be held down to a level
with what it was for the past year
A complete tabulation of the listings
of property for the year has not been
announced, and the exact amount has
not been learned.
Henderson s bonded debt is under
st;>od to -be one of the smallest of any
municipality in the State of Its size
or even smaller, but. the way the se
curities fall due .the peak will be
reached during the coming year, and
after that will take a sharp drop
which will in itself lighten the load
If the coming year can be passed
through successfully, it will be easier
to finance the municipal business
after that, according to city officials
