Some evenings ago a small delegation of prominent citizens asked that the situation be discussed and the attention of the public called to the plight the village faces. After a lengthy discussion it was agreed the undersigned should prepare an article after making some investigation. To this end the writer interviewed Attorney J. A. Finney, village solicitor and P. J. McCorkell, village clerk. Two recent ordinances passed by council have aroused the public, especially far­ mers who do not like the new parking regulations. The other ordinance, was one increasing the salary of village officials at a time when the village faces deficit financing. It might be pointed out the village now has the second highest tax rate of any village in the county, not in­ cluding our proposed new improvements. Council should repeal the salary ordinance other than that of the Village Glerk, It must be remembered local citizens are no longer enjoying the fruit of any war and many locally are now out of employment. We must keep in mind our only local industry will leave here some time after the first o f the year "on competition of a new factory building near Yellow Springs. This means the village economy will reach a new low compared to the more prosperous years as a result of the war. It seems incredible that village salaries are doubled in some in­ stances. Certainly the new proposed improvements add no greater duty or responsibility of local officials other than the Village Clerk, who has always been under-paid. This situation leads to a probable referendum on the salary ordinance which- means the electors must approve it next November election. With the village bonded debt being increased beyond what it ever has been before in the same period of time, there is now a suit pending in the Greene County Common Pleas Court asking something like $18,000 damages due to raw sewerage being dumped on land owned by H. A. Tyson, London, 0. Trouble over this situation has been brewing between Tyson and the past two council bodies. Time after time written protest has been filed with council over conditions on Tyson’s land but little or no at­ tention was given, regardless of the fact the original agreement was the village was to keep up the sluceway, which was allowed to decay and overflow the Tyson land; A t a former meeting of council months ago Marcus McCallister, then solicitor was instructed to reach agreement with Marcus Shoup, at­ torney for Miv Tyson. Agreement was reached and both appeared be­ fore council. Council rejected the compromise regardless of the fact it was in compliance with terms given Solicitor McCallister. This breach o f confidence led to McGallister’s resignation and paved the way fo r the Tyson suit. Later Attorney J. A. Finney became solicitor and' continues. With the suit pending council or Mr. Tyson have been able to agree on a settlement up to this writing. Bonds to the amount of $35, 000 have been issued and the sewer work started but terminated following the suit for damages. Mean­ time the village must pay bond interest. Under the Ohio law bond issues can only be issued on the basis of the tax duplicate. It is a question whether the tax duplicate will en­ able completion of the sewers and disposal plant without the issuance of First Mortage Bonds on a revenue basis. This in itself is a very dangerous plan o f financing any public improvement. Jamestown, has had such experience following a suit in the U. S. Court when the vil­ lage could not meet interest and bond payments. We xnow of another Yliio town that issued such bonds a .few years ago and for several years later could not meet the semi-annual payments. The town was .-irtually placed in the hands of the U. S. Court, with members of ‘ouncil, mayor, treasurer and clerk forced to act under Court orders. The Court ordered new financing, bond holders lost several years in­ terest, and were handed new bonds at a very low rate of interest and he village is yet compelled to observe orders of the Court, all funds ire subject to Court order until bond and interest charges are cared for a year4 in advance. With First Mortgage Bonds standing against all residential prop- -u-ty, as well as business property, we next 'investigate how funds are .0 be raised. We now have sewerage rental to take care of local charges. Under the new plan council proposes much higher sewerage rental will be absolutely necessary and strange to say we have, been unable to find any official that will give us a positive amount the rental will ie per month. No one knows what the cost of operating the disposal plant will be, only suggested estimates are given. Rental suggestions run from tax $2.00 to $5.00 per month, or $24.00 to $60.00 a year. You will pay these charges with the customary water bills. We learn that whatever amount of damages can he agreed to be­ tween the village and Mr. Tyson, that amount will become a part of a sewerage system or the cost of the disposal plant. We strongly pro­ test inclusion of damages in a First Mortgage Bond issue. This issue should be kept as low as possible to keep down sewerage rental charges. Council alone is responsible fo r the damage because no effort was made over a period o f years to keep up the disposal system granted iy the former Hagar Straw Board and Paper Co. This failure is the direct result of Mr. Tyson’s suit. No one can argue that Mr. Tyson is not entitled for some damage but only by agreement of those inter­ ested or the Court or jury can the amount be fixed. While the citizens approved council’s request for a bond issue it was taken the officials knew what they would, face. The public never approved a First ‘Mort­ gage bond issue such as will be necessary. Another feature we find in this sewerage situation is that council either knowingly or un- vhoughtly employed two engineers which of course means two per cent- age fees. The matter was settled by giving the sewerage system en­ gineering to a Cincinnati man and the disposal plant to a Dayton en­ gineer. Both engineers have excellent reputation^ and are in no way responsible for the unusual coinplex method of doing business. These improvements must be paid by property owners and water consumers. In addition all property will get a higher valuation and your property tax will ba increased on orders of the State Commission. Another tax increase is the new county hospital. Before this institu­ tion can be opened a tax levy to raise from $100,000 to $150,000 will be levied on all property in the county for maintanCe o f the hospital. In the near future we face increased taxes to provide additional room for the public schools! How local citizens with limited income, many of them widows, the unemployed, and owners of rental property under rent control can face the situation, we leave it to you as an individual to draw your own occlusions? Both Mr. Finney and Mr. McCorkell co-operated fully in giving us information, some o f which is eliminated due to the length of this letter. Any opinion expressed or implied is that of the under­ signed and given the public as the result o f the above mentioned con­ ference. This letter is paid for -as advertising by the undersigned.
