Mayor Baker asked if there was anyone present who cared to ask any questions regarding the proposed budget or make any comments regarding the proposed budget. There being no questions or comments from the audience, Mayor Baker concluded the hearing by stating that, in summary, the increase in the proposed budget is roughly ten to twelve percent over the budget of the current year and the proposed tax rate represents an increase from $1.46 to $1.58 which in his opinion and that of the Board was a reasonable increase commensurate with the population growth of the City and the necessarily increased demands upon the services to be provided by the City. Commissioner Fountain moved that the following budget for the City of Las Vegas for the fiscal year 1959-60 be adopted: SCHEDULE A 1959 - 60 BUDGET (Tentative) CITY OF LAS VEGAS, NEVADA ASSESSED VALUATION TOTAL General Roll --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 114,976,369.
