TOWN OF ENFIELD TAXPAYERS
On October 5, 1983 the Town Board met with the Fire Company
to confirm the contract for the 1984 Town budget. We were unable to
agree on a.contract for fire protection for 1984. At this meeting
we lowered our contract proposal by a considerable amount. In
response to our proposal the Town Board did not accept our offer,
or did they offer us a proposal. The Town Board officials are
presenting the contract -figures in percentages, showing we are
asking for an increase of 59%- 68% over our present contract.
What we would like to express to the taxpayers is though the
percentages look high, the actual dollar increase is minimal.
We are askingfor an increase of .40� per thousand of assessed
valuation. Which in effect if-yoi2-assessed valuation is 50,000
dollars your increase of fire tax would be 20.00 a year.
The Fire Company needs the public support. -What we are
asking is for an increase to cover our operating expenses which
the Contract has failed to do the past several years. We need this
money to stay with our ever increasing cost, the same as you do
trying to meet yours. Please contact a Town Official and "let them
kno. you;,support us in_Pur efforts. Enfield Fire Co.
