I know this addition is going to get a herd stampeding to my website. I have posted in the September Edition of the Seward Gateway two historic tax ordinances that came from my Grandma Mom's estate. They are both for a 2% sales tax.
In the 1949 Ordinance 190-A it suggests there was an unprecedented increase in enrollment in the city school and the city did not have sufficient fund to operate thru the current school year in the General Revenue funds. This Ordinance was passed by more than 55% of the voters in a Special Election held September 8th, then passed and approved by the Common Council on the 23rd of September under suspension of the rules. Eugene N. Lanier was Mayor, Martine Johansen, Clerk.
In the 1956 Ordinance 267 it suggests that the above-referenced Ordinance needed to be repealed and revised. This Ordinance ws passed by the City Council on June 4th. Jerry R. Stockten, Mayor and Margaret Anderson, Clerk.
