News-Sentinel Reports Hearing Scheduled on Proposed New Tax in New Haven

From the Fort Wayne News-Sentinel:

The New Haven City Council will conduct a public hearing Tuesday on a proposed new tax city officials say won’t increase the total taxes property owners must pay.
Clerk-Treasurer Brenda Adams said the proposed cumulative capital development fund, which would result in taxes of up to .0333 cents for every $100 of assessed value, would provide money for equipment and other capital needs, primarily for the police department, and would be offset by reductions in other accounts that would keep the overall tax bill flat. The meeting will begin at 7 p.m. in City Hall, 815 Lincoln Highway E.
A public hearing will also be held on re-establishment of a fire cumulative building and equipment fund.
