Braun- hart’s amendment is designed to modi- fy the dollar limit of taxation, as pro- vided in article 3, chapter 1, section | II of the charter, relating to the mak- ing of the tax levy on the last Monday in June, so that ninety ecents of the levy will be applied to the payment of all demands for the current expendi- tures of the city government and the remaining ten cents will be specifically designated for the carrying out of pub- lic improvements. | The fact that the assessment roll for this year will aggre gate a sum greater than $515,- 000,000 has {impelled Braunhart to | submit his amendment. In all likeli- hood the roll will be increased next | year to an amount in excess of that re- { turned this year and this makes it | apparent that the city will have abundant funds to pay all expenses lnnd also to make large improvements | with a dollar tax. Of course the seven | | cents allowed outside of the dollar limit for the maintenance of parks as fixed | | by the charter will continue in opera- | | tion, | The tax of ten cents for improve- | ments would next year produce a sum | in excess of $500,000. This would be in- | | dependent of any other improvements that could be inaugurated by the Su- | pervisors under its tax rate of ninety | cents. The rate adopted for the next | fiscal year was $1 12 on every $100 of assessed valuation, of which 7 cents | is for parks, 12.54 cents for redemption | of bonds and interest therecn and 92.46 cents for running expenses. Out of | this last rate the board found it pos- | sible to set aside the sum of $450,000 for | big public improvements, such as the CANNOT DO STREET WORK UNDER LAPSED PERMIT Board of Works Considers Claims of | Rival Contractors for Improving | Six Blocks. | ‘Whether or not contractors can per- 1 form street work under a permit which has lapsed was the subject of discus- | sion by the Board of Works at its ‘\vlde'n!ng of Fourth street, the paving | meeting held yesterday.

Mayor Schmitz yesterday signed the municipal budget covering the expendi- tures of the next fiscal year as adopted last Friday by the Board of Super- visors. The charter requires that the Mayor sign the ordinance designating the budget appropriations before it can become a law. The document was for- warded to the Mayor, who is now at | the Yosemite, and it was then returned by him. The only veto not sustained by the Board of Supervisors was that cutting down the appropriation for ex- | penses of litigation in the Spring Val- ley Water Company's suit from $25,000 to $10,000. The other vetoes of $5000 for | maintenance of minors in non-séctar- | ian institutions and $1475 for the pay- ment of premiums on bonds of certain | city officials were withdrawn by the i AStaadaut | 10 X6 st.
