A RESOLUTION of the City of Port Angeles for submission
to the voters of a proposition authorizing an increase
in the regular property tax levy.
WHEREAS, the laws of the State of Washington freeze the
actual property tax collections at the existing dollar level
(excepting for normal. growth) unless a majority of voters at a
general election approve an increase in dollar collections; and

of real property in the City, and the assessor is required to
reduce the 15 mills available to the city to 12.95 mills so
that it will produce the same dollar revenue as was produced in
the preceding year unless a favorable vote authorizes an increase
of millage back to the 15 mills allowable, now therefore,

Angeles, Washington, that in order to protect the financial
