ANNUAL MEETING

(C ’ frqn Page 1)

the Financial Statements for the last fiscal year, prepared by the City's auditors fromthe records 0f the City Clerk.

‘These statistical reports stoic authoritatively the Qty’; financigl position which 1 am on this occasion pleased to shte, shows a considerable u of success attained through the efforts. not only of your FinanceCommittee. but by the combined efforts of the respective Committees constituting thie Council,

My report. therefore. will be one of an explanatorynature, in that I will submit for your information what I consider to be the high- lights of vhe Auditoi“: report. with one or two observations made as to the greatly Improved financial position of this 01'. since the external audit cf 1000.

Remarkablg showing

In December 1930 the Net, Debt 0f the City of Charlottetown was $207,016.00, and from the figure as presented by the Auditor's re- port December 31, 1047, the Net Debt of the City is 01.806.591.00. This shows a decrease in the list seven years of the sum of HOCBQOO. This is truly remark- able showing, and it has only been brought about by the policy of the strictest economy, not only by this present Council, but by previous Councils.

In the last two years this pres- ent Council reduced the Czty’: dept by the sum of $107,300.00. this year's part of this amount being $01,487.00, .

The price of $102.02 that the R. A. Duly Company for twenty year 3 per cent bonds, our Refunding issue, bespeaks for the financial position in which your city is considered to be, by the Bond Dealers .who are interest- ed in purchasing and selling Municipal bonds.

Another ifirvm of the Auditor's report which I would bring to your attention is the transfer of an additional $30,000.00 from Current Account for the purpose of retiring debentures over and above the actual requirements.

Revenue t lapenditure

The total Revenue for the year wvas 044.11.406.00 as compared to QMDJOLOO in 1946.

Expenditures show s, iot-ai o! “M28200 as against $300,908.00 in 1M6-

This shows a surplus for the year's business of $9,173.00. .

However, 1 would like to asflln make special mention of whet is already stated above, that in the Statement of Expenditures there is a transfer of 030000.00 for the retirement of debentures. 1n addition to the other item, in ex- penditures 0,1 $44,403.16. _

In the arrears of- taxes. the amount of 050,610.00 was collected in tax arrehrs, as against $52,125.00 in i008. This makes l.‘ total of amount of arrears collected in the two your: of 0104-73500.

As mentioned in my report last yggr, and 1 would reecmrnend .10 the finance Committee of the succeeding Council, that the old outstanding Poll Taxes and Person- al Property taxes, where the per- sons involved died or moved may. be written off against the Reserve for Uncollectable, rather than be curried on the Tax Arrears ledger from yeer to year-

Current Collections

The‘ current collection cf Real Ilisteta was 01 per cent of iha total year's levy, Ll against so per cent the previous year.

was all percent with the similar percentage last year. c

P011 Tax collections were 4B per cent as against if per cont last year.

Total Receipts for the current year were 05.110.570.00 as compared with $467,140.00 in 1046.

Sinking Pond Investment is th same as a year ago. at the presen time amounting to $441,000.00. The Sinking Fund investments, te- gether with p-emiums rccieved from sale of debentures, show Sinking rund Income at little better than 4 par cent for the year. but actually Sinking Fund investment is earning u little over S per cent. -

Permanent work

Considerable work of a perman- ent nature was done, but notwith- standing the expenditure in Capit- |.l Account, the Net Debt 0f this City. which is Debentures out- standinr. Bank overdraft, Accounts payable, eic. less the Sinking Fund investments, Cash in the Bank and 1h hand, shows a rc- duction cf QSIAMDO. '

"As I have seid before, the Finance committee for the pest year hll a very. very good year's report. This has not been accom- pilshed entirely by your Fnance

Committee, but by the several

\

Collection o1 Personal Property’

Committees of the council, you, flnence Committee, after all, com- piles the Statement of Revenue as compared with t/he actual expendi- ture of the Committees of this COIIMII- It is only by a policy of economy in expenditure that we can have such a successful year ar- Wv hlvc enloyed._As a matter of fact. I believe the sdminlstritlon for the pest two years has given as good Civic Government as any of its predecessors."

"I have endeavored to point out and stress certain facts as contain. ed in the Auditor's report. It has been most gratifying to me u Chairman of Finance tq come m W“ again tonight as I did a year are and report a. surplus. This has been done only by co-operatlon of yourself, sir, and every Coun- cilior. and the hard and conscienti- ous work of the City staff under the direction of our City Clerk and Supervisor. All have preformed their duties efficiently, faithfully and impartially."

"On behalf of the Finance Cflmmilitfi. I extend our sincerest thanks for the many courtes es extended us during the past year."
