Sunday‘s Among those from Waukegan who Inâ€" Deerfield Park District Finance Plan Is Discussed ‘The committee appointed by the Deerfield Chamber of Commerce to study the financial effects of the proposed Park District upon owners of property within the district reâ€" ports that the Park Commissioners would have the authority to levy a tax of one and one half mills on each dollar of taxable property within the district. s amount levied for payment of bonded indebtedness or interest This tax could be increased to a maximum of two mills on the dolâ€" lar of taxable property but only after the voters at a regularly called election had voted in favor of such an increase. § The value of taxable property within a Park District is the aggreâ€" gate valuation as equalized for State and County taxes for the preceding year, or, in other words, the same values as are now used for the genâ€" eral taxes. thereon and can be levied without a referendum vote. In regard to the issuance of Park District Bonds for the purpose of paying for land, boulevards, buildâ€" ings, etc., it appears that the Park Commissioners would have authorâ€" ity, without a referendum vote, to issue such bonds for a total amount equal to three per cent of the value of the taxable property within the Park District. This total could be increased to five per cent of the value of taxable property but only after the matter had been submitted to the voters for approval, C The Commissioners would also have the power to levy a tax suffiâ€" cient to pay the interest on the bonds and to pay off all the bonds over a maximum period of twenty years from the date of issuance. The interest rate cannot exceed five per cent per annum and the bonds must be sold for par or better. _ The Commissioners would also have the power to create parks and improvements therein by means of special assessments levied upon property benefited by such parks or improvements but it is not necessary to go into detail on this matter at this time. All of the foregoing is interesting but not informative to the average citizen who is mainly concerned with the actual dollars and cents. Instead it can be pointed out that a Park District can acquire land and buildings by purchase, by conâ€" demnation proceedings and also by gift. The last named power is drawn to the special attention of 15:3& spirited citizens who may be râ€" ous of perpetuating their names and memories\by a gift of land to the community. â€" The total bonding power and posâ€" sible gross revenue from taxes canâ€" not be ascertained until the boundâ€" aries of the proposed Park District are â€"fixed and the computations worked out, however the very worst that can happen in the way of taxes would be as follows: Without a Public Referendam fep on in twenty years and the maximum interest of five per cent paid.. t a Favorable Election. _ Annual maintenance tax ...... Bond retirement and interest by 45 and then divide by 1000, the answer will be the largest amount which a Park District can levy upon his piece of property without a refâ€" erendum vote. The assessed valuaâ€" tion multiplied by 70 and divided by 1000 will show the largest amount possible after the voters have given their approval. . Incidentally one of the best ways to increase the values of real estate is to beautify a community with parks and provide in them for the healthful recreation and amusement “r“‘-"‘.""m"'"‘u..g.u in a letter to Wim.
