Culbertson council sets 1965 levies totaling 38.3 mills
Summary
In its August session the Culbertson Town Council adopted the 1965 budget and set property levies: General 14 mills, Street 6 mills, Sewer improvement 4.8 mills, Water improvements 3.5 and 8 mills (separate issues), and Airport 2 mills — totaling 38.3 mills.
The Culbertson Town Council reviewed the municipal budget and on Aug. 2 set mill levies for the 1965 budget year that together total 38.3 mills.
The council established the following levies: General fund 14 mills; Street fund 6 mills; Sewer improvement 4.8 mills; Water improvement (1952) 3.5 mills; Water improvement (1964) 8 mills; and Airport 2 mills. The minutes record that the budget was presented and that levies were established after discussion. On the same day the council recorded the final passage of Resolution 139 related to the airport loan obligations.
Why it matters: the levies determine local property‑tax rates and fund municipal services including streets, sewer, water improvements and airport obligations. The minutes record the levy amounts and the council’s approval; roll‑call vote details are not provided in the minutes.
What’s next: the levies as set in the minutes will be used to prepare tax assessments and to fund the budgeted programs for the town year. The minutes show the council renewed sewer‑plant insurance and handled routine claims and payments as part of budget administration.
Attribution: Budget presentation and levy decisions are recorded in the council minutes; no named roll‑call tallies are included.
