The Burnside Bridge
Pays its Cost
The Property Owners along Burnside street
pay over $100,000.00 more in taxes each year
than do the property owners along Ankeny or
Couch streets, on account of the present bridge
making the street a thoroughfare and consequen­
tial higher assessed valuations.
In the event the present bridge is condemned
(it being already closed to heavy traffic) and not
rebuilt, property along Burnside street will be
assessed the same as along Ankeny or Couch
stieets and the general tax fund will loose over
$100,000.00 each year; our great traffic artery
closed, trans-river commerce and travel serious­
ly impeded and a growing district in the center
of our city paralyzed.
In the even t the new bridge is built the sav­
ing o f $ 1 0 0 ,0 0 0 .0 0 to the gen eral tax fund each
year, together w ith further increased a ssessed
valuations a lo n g Burnside street, w ill m ore than
tw ice pay for the bridge durihg its natural life.
Further, we will have a central bridge vitally
necessary to the business activity of the entire
city, a great widened artery running east and
west with many new buildings erected thereon
and a city undivided within itself. This bridge
costs money because it is substantial and ninety
feet wide, almost twice the width of our present
bridges.
1 he new bridge is to be constructed in accord­
ance with the Laurgaard Water Front Project
