Item 8a The public hearing was opened on the Community Development Block Grant Application. The City Manager explained the programs and amounts which the staff is recommending. This is the final public hearing on the 1980-81 Community Development Block Grant Application. Projects totaling funds of $2,171 ,000 are recommended. The City Manager also noted that should the Holliday Creek proposal by the petitioners ' committee be approved by the voters on April 5, then $1 ,000,000 of these funds would have to be eliminated or reduced in order to provide partial funding for Holliday Creek. Various members of the Council felt that the people involved in the Community Development Block Grant hearing should be notified that some of the money would have to be pulled out if the Holliday Creek issue passes on April 5. 458 Item 8a, cont'd. Mayor Hill stated that he wants everyone to know what will happen if this issue passes. Alderman Smith stated that it will take a tax increase of 27 to 40 percent to finance this project. Mayor Hill explained that if federal funds are discontinued, a tax increase could be from 57 to 66 percent. Alderman Smith stated that it would also have to be paid for in three years, with no additional bonds floated. Alderman Hampton stated that it is a very trying and unpleasant situation as a city councilman to have to be against something which the city needs. We need to alleviate the problems on Holliday Creek, but we do not believe that it is for the benefit of the citizens of Wichita Falls, and the City, to do it this way. We want to see it done, but under the conditions and instructions placed on the City Council by the Petitioners to fund this project, will do more harm to the City as a whole than it will benefit them. J. C. Boyd, Jr. , Executive Director of Midtown Now, spoke in favor of the funding as outlined by the City Manager. He also spoke as a private citizen, residing at 1613 Easy. He stated that he has never seen anything as ill-conceived and stupid as the Holliday Creek issue. He stated that he had previously spent at least 30 hours before boards and engineers hearing testimony on the Corps ' project. No one has ever said that they did not like the program of the Corps of Engineers. He is afraid that what is happening is that some people are becoming impatient. He stated that a 30 to 60 percent tax increase would gut the industrial development program of the City. Industries would not even talk to us. No one else desired to be heard, and the public hearing was closed.
