That is the matter of clearing the city’s title to the municipal golf course and botanical gardens on Stock Island and the so-called Art Center property Front street. on As explained by city council, the city | neglected to Murphyize the back taxes were owing the state and county before the city Last year, according to reports, the city could have wiped out all back taxes and retained a clear title to the property for a mere $130 in fees under the Murphy act. Not only did the old council endanger | the city’s ownership of these valuable lands by its neglect, it saddled the city spending several hundreds of dollars to regain title to the property. It is likely the city attorney may have to be sent to Tallahassee to untangle | this title mess with the Florida State In- ternal Improvement Board, which now holds the title under the Murphy act. No satisfactory explanation of why the old council neglected to Murphyize been offered. A interested in blocking the efforts new council to help the city regain its prestige than in helping solve this prob- lem. Instead of co-operating, some of the old councilmen seem to be striving with all i their might to belittle and underrate the achievements of the new councilmen. The Citizen believes it is time for the people of this community to recognize the problems and appreciate the earnest ef- forts of our present councilmen to meet those problems—including the problems bequeathed to them by the old councilmen. Our new city council fell heir to a nice col- | lectio:: of choice probems when it took over. It is unfair to expect this council to meet current problems when they arise and clear up the old problems without mak- ing some mistakes, some wrong moves and | some errors. They can’t be right all the time—but as long as they are trying to be right and to do right, they deserve the sup- protected the | | best interests of the taxpayers while doing | many of the things that should have been ' done in other years, Within the last few days the present | enother™. | is Can you answer seven of these ‘p.
