$300,000, With Which to Take
Over Distributing Plant or
Build a New One.
The Mayor's budget of estimated ex
penditures for running; the city during
1909 has been completed.
In his budget, the Mayor states the In
creased sums asked by each department
and the reasons therefore. The City En
gine's office asks for K7.000 more this
year, as estimated, than last and because
of the fact that the work has Increased
so largely that It Is Impossible to get
along without more help and facilities.
Tiie Health Officer asks for JSOOO more
to make that department more efficient
and to safeguard the public health. The
Streetcleaning Department asks for $6.
W) increase, as Superintendent Donaldson
declares this sum will be necessary. IX
the streets are to be kept In proper con
dition. Under the law, the city must pay
tlie Water Board JSC'.OOO a year for water,
and the transfers from the general fund
calls for SCOCO for street and sewer In
terest fund and of $25,000 for Improve
ment bond interest, he states.
What Mayor Says About Lighting.
On the subject of public lighting, the
Mayor says:
The levy or this purpose is limited by the
rherter to 1 H mill. If the method em
ployed at this time to secure such service Is
t- be pursued, it wilt require a levy of about
six-tenths of a mill amiimenl upon the
'Illation of property as It Is returned by
the Assessor at this time to provide for th
ssm-.
If your honorable body does not take
"me action deind to relieve the city
from the onerous condition sousht to he Im
posed upon It by the terms offered by th
slnsle hldder for the service, an estimate
railing for a larser sum must be substituted
for the one herewith submitted.
ff It should be your deslrs to entirely free
the city from Its present helpless condition
In respect to public lighting, a levy of I V,
mills, the limit whlrh Is permitted by the
charter, -would realise about .i0O.O00. This
smount would very nearly provide means
surnclent to accomplish the purpose, and for
every reason of economy snd self-respeot
noon the part of the city a levy of that
amount for that purpose should be made.
Aa to the Fire Department, the Mayor
points out that the estimates for the
next year Is placed at $3S.00. but that
the charter fixes the maximum levy at
a ratio that will yield but M62.000, and vol
unteers the statement that any help that
can be given by the fire committee of the
Executive Board will be furnished gladly.
The maxim levy for the police fund would
bring In $370,000. but the estimate is only
J'.MOOO. for the street repair fund the max
imum levy will yield IHo.OOO. and the es
timate for the ensuing year It $117,000:
the estimate for the Public Library fund
is $27,500. The estimate for tha park fund
is $11S.'W and the maximum tax levy will
bring In only lina.OOO. and If any more
Is to be expended k will have to coma
from the general fund. .
The assessed valuation of real and per
sonal property In Portland ia placed at
J5.0"0.000.
