Rural development
plan revealed
AUSTIN--A plan for the development of rural Texas was
revealed here this week that includes a recommendation that
non-profit water supply corporations be exempt from property
taxes.
The plan is the result of an 18 month study by the Texas Rural
Development Commission and it was made public during the
Governor's conference on Rural Development. The conference
marked the official end of the Commission's activities.
The recommendation related to non-profit water supply
corporations is included in the General Government section of
the Commission's report. A proposed amendment to the Texas
Constitution, number nine, will appear on the November 6 ballot
that will give the Texas Legislature the authority to write
legislation exempting non-profit water supply corporations from
property or ad valorem taxes.
Explaining its stand on the issue, the Commission report
states, "This taxation, now greatly hindering rural development
because of the constraints it places on developing water sources,
does not take into account the vital fact that non-profit water
corporations are in business just to serve the members domestic
water. These corporations are owned by the people they serve
and operate in a manner similar to municipal systems and water
districts but they are taxed and do not have the power to tax."
Other major features of the Commission's report include
Economic Development, Housing, Natural Resources,
Transportation, Health, Education and Human Resources.
Nutrition emphasized
This Halloween, take a nutritious treat to the dinner table,
suggests Mrs. Gwendolyne Clyatt.
"Prepare a favorite recipe for chill con came," the consumer
msLvketing information specialist, Texas Extension Service,
Texas A&M University System, instructed.
"Top each piping hot bowl of chili with a slice of American
cheese cut in the shape of a pumpkin or Jack-o-lantern.
"Don't worry about wasting cheese. Just blend the scraps into
the ehill--stirring over low heat until the eheese melts," she
added.
