To the Honorable City Council and Citizens of Southlake:
In accordance with the prescribed laws regulating the expenditures
of the people's funds, I submit the 1914-1975 Budget for adoption.
As stated in my Budget Message of last year, operating costs have
once again eliminated any addition of municipal services. While
Anticipated Revenue show an increase of approximately $5,800, it
would be perilous to add a service which further inflation might
wipe out.
However, this does not mean that our City is at a standstill. On
the contrary, we are taking steps toward sewer funding, and we are
strengthening our community development codes, as well. As we get
closer to a public sewer system, we may call on your support of a
bond issue. But, for now, it is our best judgment to remain "status
quo" and not increase the tax rate from its present level of 504
per $100 valuation.
We trust the citizens will agree with our course of action.
Very truly yours,
CITY OF SOUTHLAKE
