Proceedings of BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS City of Paducah,_1iLNTUCKY.,_AERIL_2.7,U38
PiHEREAS, an appeal has been made to this Board by the City
Manager; the Honorable Ltayor and the Commissioners of the City of
Paducah, Kentucky, requesting that said Board of Education reconsider
its specifications as hereinafter set out so as to reduce, if possible,
the amount of the levy, rbich it is the duty of the Mayor and
Commis loners of the City of Paducah, Kentucky, to make, for school
purposes this year, and
WHEREAS, this Board has re-examined its budget and rinds that
the amount of money necessary to be raised for school pu.poses for
the current year as therein stated is correct and that the schools
cannot be operated, without serious impairment, if said amount of
money is not raised; but,
WHEREAS, after the resolution above referred to, of March 1.9,
1936, was adopted, a judgment was recovered by this Board against
the City of Paducah, Kentucky, wh reby it was directed that the City
pay to this Board the sum of $16,541.15 and said sum has been paid
and the amount of said recovery, less the expense incident thereto,
to -wit the sum of $1,654.11, is now in the hands of the Board of
Education and same was not anticipated as revenue within this fiscal
year at the time said budget was adopted and for that reason the income
to be raised by tax may be reduced in an amount equal to the net amount
of said recovery; and,
7HEREAS, this Board desires to continue to operate the schools
at the lowest rate possible and to give to the tax -payers of the City
of Paducah all the reduction that may be had without impairment of
the educational system of.the City;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the amount of money needed
for surrent expense, debt service, capital outlay and other necessary
expenses of the schools during this fiscal year of 1936 is, as set out
in the budget hereinbefore referred to; that the estimated total amount
that will be received from the common school fund is as stated in said
budget; that the amount to be received under the heading of "Income not
Anticipated in the Budget" is now set at $14,885.04 and the amount that
will be needed to be raised by tax levy on all property subject to
taxation for school purposes in theCity of Paducah, Kentucky, is reduced
by said amount. It is now certified, declared and specified that the
rate of levy on all property subject to school taxation in the City of
Paducah, Kentucky, necessary to raise such amount is 84 on each $100.00
valuation of such taxable property, instead of and in lieu of the 90¢
levy set out in the resolution of March 19, 1936.
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, therefore, that the resolution of
!arch 19, 1936 be abd it is now amended so as to have stricken from said
resolution the 90¢ levy and inserted in lieu and in place thereo., in
each place where the 90¢ levy appears, and 83¢ levy on each $100.00
valuation of property taxable for school purposes in the City of Paducah
Kentucky, for the current year, and provided that such an amendment shalt
not change the levy of 30 on each $100.00 valuation of property subject
to such taxation for the teacher's retirement fund, as set out in the
reqolution of March 19, 1936, and that said resolution, as hereinbefore
amended, is now reaffirmed and readopted.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that since Chapter 65, of the Acts of the
General Assembly of 1934 clearly places upon the local taxing authority
of the City of Paducah the obligation of maintaining the sinking fund
for all bonded indebtedness of said city, including bonds voted for school
purposes and since this Beard has heretofore recommended to said tc,xing
authority the amount of tax levy necessary to produce the sum of money
required to maintain the interest and sinking fund on the bonds of this
City heretofore issued for school purposes, and this Board now resommends
that the City Commissioners levy whatever rate for this purpose that they,
in their judgment, find necessary tharefor.
