Measure No. 51
AUTHORIZATION FOR ONE-YEAR OPERATING LEVY
QUESTION: Shall the City of Woodburn levy $962,001.00 outside the tax base to
finance city operations during 1987-88?
EXPLANATION: The City's tax base for fiscal year 1987-88 is $138,715.00,
therefore it is necessary to request a one-year tax levy to provide for the
continuation of city services in the General Fund, Street Light Fund, and
Transit Fund.
A summary of taxes requested in this measure is as follows:
General Fund $ 840,896.00
Street Light Fund $ 86,561.00
Transit Fund $ 34,544.00
$ 962,001.00
The General Fund provides funding for Police and Emergency Dispatch services,
Senior Programs, Municipal Court, City Attorney's office, Administration, and
City Hall maintenance. The level of public services within the General Fund
will remain essentially the same as those currently being provided to the
citizens of our community.
This measure will also provide for street light operational costs and the
continuation of the six-day bus service within the community.
