A motion was made by Councilman Roth, Seconded by
Councilman Holland, that the foregoing Resolution No. 770
be adopted~ and upon call of roll the motion carried
unanimously.
City Manager Black advised the Council of an error on
the 1958 and 19~9 Tax Rolls, whereby Hofman Addition had not
been charged Debt Service millage, which amounted to $932.00
in taxes. As the Charter provided that errors or omissions
for a period of three years back may be assessed, a motion
was made by Councilman Saunders, seconded by Councilman Holland
and unanimously carried, that the property owners in this sub-
division be billed for the taxes omitted, after being notified
as to the reason for the additional bills.
The meeting then adjourned.
