BOARD OF ESTIMATE AND TAXA-

The electors of the city should up-
preclate the importance of the pro.
posed Board of Estimate and Taxation

held at Arlon Hall at 8 o'clock this
evening.
If this act shall be approved tonight
by the electors, we believe that every
good citizen will be pleased with this

advanced step In the manner of doing
the public business. It will be in no
sense an experiment. for practically
every city in the state has a board of
this kind, and the town of Norwalk
has Just organized one. it will make
it necessary to expend'the people's
money with the same care and circum-
spection that is observed by good busi-
ness men imthe transaction oi‘ their
own business.
‘ Here are a few of the advantages
of this board:
It Is non-partisan. There will be six
members appointed by the mayor in
such a manner as to divide them equal-
ly between the two leading political
parties, for the time being.
There will always be men of exper-
ience on the board, for each year (af-
ter the first year) the mayor is requir-
ed to appoint three men for the term
of two years.
The mayor shall be exoiiicio a mem-
ber of the board, but shall have no
vote except in case of a tie vote, when
he may dissolve the some. The mayor
shall preside at the meetings, when he
Is present, and four members of the
board shall constitute a quorum, and
the concurrence of tour votes shall be
necessary for the transaction of busi-
ness. The clerk of the city shall be
clerk of the board.
. The meetings of the board shall be
open to the public
All requests now made to city meet-
~ lugs for appropriations shall be made
' ‘ ' fo's‘ald board. and the board shall have
full power to require all of the officers
of the city to furnish all the informa-
tion which they may possess, and to
exhibit all books, contracts, reports
and other papers.
The board shall have the power to
levy taxes on the polls and ratable
estate within the limits of the city for
. such purposes as the city is authorized
by law to levy taxes.
The appropriations asked [or must
be published so that every tax ,payer
may know what is to be considered
by the board.
The board shall hold a meeting on
the first Monday of March In each
year, and may adjourn the 14mm! from
time to time to a day not later than
the third Monday of March In said
year: and they shall bear all parties
who desire to be heard.
. The board shall not have tho poWor
to make any appropriation in 0110111111 oi
the estimate made by it of the revs-
nues of the city for any year. and in
' no‘case shall the expenses of the city
exceed its estimated revenues for any
year. except in cases where the city
is authorized to Issue bonds. This
will prevent the city from running
into debt. as it has boon doing for
several years back, and require it “to
pay as it goes."
Any tax laid by the board may be
disapproved by a city meeting called
by the mayor on the written request
of twonty-ilvo voters. if 11 city meet
ing should disapprove of any tax, the
board would have to convene and lay
another tax of 11 loss nmouut‘llmn that.
