There was a representive of a bonding company in Denver who was present
and thld the board the different way they could raise money for paying
off any bonds which were made in making a sewer. There was three ways:
lst.By direct taxation but as the assessed valuation was only 253.000
and only a tax of 3% could be levied on this amount,so this plan was no good
2nd.Several town ha.d organized sanitary sewer districts which could
issue bonds without limit as long as they could seel the bonds.
3rd.The Town could issue sewer and water revenue bonds and charge each user
a rental for the sewer but the water revenue had to be turned in on this
way for redeeming the bonds.
