WHEREAS, the voters of Saint Paul will vote on December 9 ,
1969 , on an amendment to the City Charter which would authorize
the imposition of an income tax, for the years 1970 and 1971, in
the form of a surtax on State income taxes ; and
WHEREAS, the Charter Commission has requested that the
Council make known to the voters its intentions for using any
moneys raised by such a tax during the year 1970 ,
Now, Therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That upon a favorable vote of the people on
December 9 , the Council hereby expresses its intention to use
the moneys obtained by such surtax as hereinafter set forth:
1. That the 6 . 7 percent cut in the 1969 level of services
carried out in the 1970 budget shall be restored.

demand the addition of 20 men, and therefore $193,200 shall be
�added to the Police Department budget.

an adequate level of garbage collection under the present budget,

6 . That statistics of the Commissioner of Taxation clearly
indicate that the amounts collected by the proposed tax will be more
than sufficient to cover the aforesaid amounts and that additional
funds will likely be collected, and, therefore, all such additional
funds shall be placed in escrow by the Comptroller to be used to
fund the 1971 budget, so that there will be no additional tax
demands on the people of Saint Paul.
