A NICE RECORD OF BOND RETIREMENT IN SIX YEARS Bond indebtedness of the City of Plattsmouth at this date amounts tc $204,000. That is $81,000 less than the city owed on May 1, 4934, when George Lushinsky became mayor. By years, the reductions have been as follows: 1934- 35 $16,500 1935- 36 17,500 1936- 37 12,000 1937- 38 10,000 1938- 39 12,000 1939- 40 13,000 This year (1940-41) only $6,000 of bond principal become due, but in submitting its budget recommenda tions to the council Tuesday night the Finance committee will include an additional $6,000 to be raised for bond payment, which will become a sinking fund to apply on the pay ment of $39,000 5V per cent bonds becoming due January 1, 1942. The 1941-42 year maturities, exclusive of this $39,000, amount to only $1,000, so if a like amount is raised for pay ment that year, the city will have $18,000 on handwith which to meet nearly half of the $39,000. In case the interest rate remains low, the balance of this $39,000 and a $68,000 optional 4 per cent issue, which are callable for refunding at any time after August 1, 1941, could be con solidated into a single refunding issue. ... . The $39,000 maturity is the las of a non-optional 5 per cent re- funding bond issue of $96,000, pay able serially at the rate of $3,000 a year for nineteen ears, with balance becoming due at end of the twentieth year, January 1, 1942. Comparable with Plattsmouth's bond indebtedness, of $204,000, Ne braska City's now stands at $300, 000, but the city commission there is arranging to issue $800,000 more (in revenue bonds) for the purpose of acquiring the Missouri river bridge. . .
