We probably will be at the very lowest spot with regard to property taxes. I am not in favor of adding more property taxes but what I am in favor of is maintaining the on- going prosperity of this city in terms of its property values, which I think every responsible person in Santa Aha wants to do. "The budget we have just approved, or initiated, does not take care of the minimum, in my opinion, necessity of maintaining the services to the citizens of Santa Ana and maintaining the property values as we desire to have them maintained. I think our capital plant is not being satisfactorily taken care of by this budget. I don't think this budget views the long-term pull of the City of Santa Aha. I think it is just false reasoning that says we must cut back taxes because there is a g~eat inflation. The very fact there is a great inflation demands that the taxes be greater to maintain the needs of the City of Santa Ana in comparison to other cities. "I want to go on record as not being real happy about cutting back on taxes because of do to the City in the long term," (CA ORAL COMMUNICATION Councilman Markel again "NEWS STORY" & expressed his opposition ADMINISTRATIVE AIDE to the continuance of the Santa Aha News Story and the appointment of an assistant to the Mayor, stating that he contested the necessity for them, and was disappointed that those matters had not been discussed during Budget Study, Session.
