Gives Home Owners 25* Tax Cut —____—-_—-* Non-Homestead Property Raised 4.1% Because Of Hospital Tax Homestead owners should re- joire today. City commissioners have ap- proved a 25% tax cut -for-them. But owners of non-homestead property will pay 4.1% more than they did in 1951. Actually nonhomestead owners would have received w tax cut but funds allocated by the State Legislature for the Monroe Gen- in millage. The two mills levied for the hos- pital will bring in $28,000. Eight percent of the millage set last night will go towards main- tenance of the local hosptal. In 1950, total millage was 24. This year it will be 25.

City Manager Dave King has accepted the resignation saying: “He is one of the best officers we have.

Papy’s resignation is effective July 15, It is the first resignation from the force that definitely states that low pay is the cause for leaving, said King.
