1933 Annual ReportANNUAL REPORT' of the ItV of Saline, Kansas for the I 1'1 =AR 1 -NDING Report of the City Clerk, Salina, Kansas Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 1933 Another municipal year has been completed and I take pleasure in trans- mitting to you a report covering the work of the several departments for the twelve months period ending December 31, 1933. The purpose of this report is to set forth briefly the present financial condition of the City Government and to review the nature and cost of public service rendered tc our citizens during the past year, and at the same time serve to show that the government of Salina is in reality a business of considerable :importance to its citizens in which each citizen has a definite financial interest involving a right to a full knowledge of the public service rendered through the ex- penditure of the funds entrusted to its officials. In considering the question of General Taxes on both real estate and personal property, the following tabular statement shows the amount of such taxes collected from the taxpayers of Salina for operating expenses of the various city departments exclusive of interest on bonds and bond retirements. This tabulation covers a period of twelve years beginning in 1922: Amount collected from Salina taxpayers for operating expenses ex- clusive of bond interest and bond principal for the years 1921 to 193i inclusive: 1933 ...... $1 42,936.78 1927 ...... $213,418.86 1932...... 220,906.10 1926...... 176,610.12 1931...... 224,759.90 1925...... 170,224.33 1930...... 245,417.10 1924...... 175,637.95 1929 ...... 218,008.82 1923 ...... 172,5 58.02 1928 ...... 235,238.57 1922 ...... 155,771.55 From the foregoing statement several interesting facts may be noted. First, that the peak for the amount collected from taxes for operating the city's various departments was in the year 1930, when the amount collected was $245,417.10 and the minimum amount collected for the same purpose was in 1933 in the sum of $142,936.78. In other words, there was approxi- mately $103,000 less collected from the taxpayers of Salina in 1933 for operating expenses of the City than for the same purpose in 1930. You will also note that 1933 is approximately $13,000 less than for the year 1922, when the city's population was 5,000 less than in 1933. 3 The question is often asked, "What portion of each dollar of the taxes to be paid by Salina property owners goes to the several taxing bodies ?" The following graph shows the distribution of the tax dollar for zhe 1933 tax year. N5 a \� Uoo � � v a 04 ok dos CI% THE 1933 TAX DOLLAR THE 1933 TAX DOLLAR 1 —Out of every dollar paid in taxes 34c goes for the support of City Government. 2 —Out of every dollar paid in taxes 46%2c is used for educational purposes. 3 —Out of every dollar paid in taxes 10 �12 c goes for t.iie support of County Government. 4 —Out of every dollar paid in taxes 9c goes for the support of State Government. 4 A comparison of 1933 per capita tax costs in Salina with those of other first -class cities in Kansas will be of interest at this time. Total Per Capita Tax Costs for the First -Class Cities of Kansas for the Tax Year 1933 Coffeyville ..... 21.72 Leavenworth .... 26.07 Salina ......... 32.59 Parsons ........ 34.77 Pittsburg ...... 35.10 Atchison ...... 35.82 Fort Scott ...... 36.13 Kansas City, Ks. 36.67 Wichita ....... 36.82 Hutchinson .... 36.82 Topeka ........ 44.41 You will note there are but two other first -class cities with a lower per capita tax cost than Salina. Assuming that the average Salina taxpayer owns a home on which the assessed valuation is $3000, if his personal property is assessed at $500, his total assessed valuation is $3500 at the city tax rate of $8.64 per thousand as used for the 1933 budget, this average taxpayer would contribute approx. imately $30.00 towards the support of Salina's City Government. The average taxpayer who contributes $30.00 per year, or $2.50 per month toward the support of City Government receives the following service in return for such payment: 1 —Five of his fellow citizens serve at a salary of $75.00 per year on the City Commission as a Board of Directors, contributing many hours per month of their time to city problems in the interest of the taxpayer. In addition, several other administrative boards, such as the Library Board, the Planning Board, Memorial Hall Board, Cemetery Board, Airport Board, Public Works Board, and Band Trustees, all made up of citizens who serve without pay- 2 —A well equipped public library is maintained for the use of him- self and his family —its circulation has increased remarkably during the depression. 3— Careful studies are made for him by the Planning and Zoning Board to guide the future orderly development of the City. Zoning regulations are enacted and enforced which protect the value of his residential property. 4 —The health of his family is . afeguarded by a modern health department, headed by a full time public health nurse. The milk and water supply of the city is safeguarded by proper in spections and laboratory tests. E 5— Regulations pertaining to new building construction, plumb- ing and gas installations and electric wiring are enforced for his protection. 6 —The streets of the City used by him are cleaned regularly, graded and maintained, including the repair of hard surfaced streets in order to preserve their life and relieve the property owner of the necessity of paying special assessments for replacements. 7 —The sewers which carry house sewage and storm water from his property are cleaned regularly and kept in repair in order that they may function efficiently. An up -to -date sewage disposal plant is operated and maintained for the proper disposal of sewage wastes. 8— Street signs are erected and maintained and traffic signs and signals are installed for his convenience and safety. 9 —Twice each year he may deposit on the parkway his accumulations of old downspouts, tin cans, and similar rubbish to be hauled away free of charge. 10 —His street is reasonably well lighted at night and a modern ornamental white way system is provided on many streets. 11 —His property and family are protected from serious crime by a police department of 15 members, who are always at his call when needed. 12 —For his safety and convenience reasonable traffic regulations have been adopted after careful study and are enforced im- partially and honestly. 13 —The investment in his property is protected against sudden loss by fire through the vigilance of a well trained, well equipped, full time fire department of 20 members, and as a result the sum paid by him for insurance on his property is based on a reasonably low rate. 14 —In order to assist him in eliminating the hazard from fire, in- spections are made by the fire department inspector at frequent intervals, including fire prevention inspections of schools and churches and fire prevention ordinances are enforced. 15 - -Six parks with a combined acreage of 170 acres, are :maintained and equipped for the enjoyment of himself and family in their leisure and athletic activities. All the foregoing services, as well as many minor ones, are furnished to Mr. Taxpayer as a result of his contributions to City Government. If his assessed valuation is less than $3500 he receives the same amount of service at a correspondingly lower cost. 6 Many citizens are of the opinion that our bonded indebtedness has in- creased considerably in the past few years. In 1923 the per capita indebtedness Of the city was approximately $75.00 per capita. On December 31, 1933, outside of waterworks bonds for which not one cent of tax money has been used for payment of interest or principal, the per capita outstanding in- debtedness is $57.00 per capita, or a reduction of $18.00 per capita in the past ten years. All of this is in face of the fact that during the past three or four years it has been necessary to issue bonds for construction work in order to provide employment for those in need. CONCLUSION On behalf of the administrative organization of the City I wish to express appreciation for the encouraging support and kindly co- operation Of the citizens of the City, which has made any measure of success in the work of the past year possible. Rzspectfully submitted, G��rr�c -Pi ✓- City Clerk.

December 24, 1910 32 VITAL STATISTICS GYPSUM HILL CEMETERY Gypsum Hill Cemetery is owned and under the control of the City of Salina. All receipts collected from the sale of lots and from all sources are applied on the upkeep and beautifying of the grounds. If at any time the receipts are not sufficient, the City must according to law, levy a tax for the support of the cemetery, so there will always be a positive guarantee that the cemetery will be perpetual. The lot owners have the privilege of placing any style of monument on their lots they may desire, or can build private mausoleums. The rules of the cemetery are very liberal and are made for the benefit of the lot owners who have a voice in the management just the same as in any other part of the city government. A complete water system has been installed, and city water is available to all parts of the grounds. The price of lots is very reasonable; the full size lots, 1800 are priced at $150.00 and $140.00; half lots 18x15, $80.00 and $75.00. The half lots are sold mostly, as this will accommodate about eight burials, and room for family monument. There is located in the cemetery the HILLCREST MEMORIAL MAUSOLEUM, with 257 crypts and a number of private rooms. Also a number of private mausoleums have been constructed. At the request of a large number of lot owners the city has established a perpetual care fund. Any lot owner can, if they so desire, place a deposit of money which is placed in the Gypsum Hill Lot Owners Endowment Fund for the perpetual care of the lot. The minimum amount is $100 for a full lot, $75 for half lot and $50 for a quarter lot. There are a large number of lot owners taking advantage of this plan, and no doubt in a few years the majority will have the matter of care of their plot of ground forever settled. The money so collected is invested in government bonds and the interest only is used for the upkeep of said lots. 33 Births Deaths 1925 ........................ 413 232 1926 ........................ 445 232 1927 ........................ 459 227 1928 ..................... .. 455 292 1929 ........................ 486 272 1930 ........................ 528 282 1931 ........................ 471 289 1932 .........................490 300 1933 ........................ 448 283 GYPSUM HILL CEMETERY Gypsum Hill Cemetery is owned and under the control of the City of Salina.
