From State of Washington, Census Hoard to -wit: June 15, 1956 Dear City Official: Attached herewith is a preliminary, unofficial draft of the Census Board's 1956 population report of the 252 towns and cities in the state of Washington. The purpose of this tabulation is to give each Municipality an opportunity to examine these figures before final certification by the Census Board. Questions concerning the validity of any of these statistics should be accom- panied by supporting date. All requests for special review must be recieved by this office nob later than July 1, In deriving the figures in this table, the Census Board accepted the reports on territorial annexations between April 1, 1955 and march 31,1956 as presented by the various municipalities, with the assumption that these annexations were properly filed with the Secretary of State. It will be recalled from our letter of April 17,1956, which was mailed to all towns and cities, that according to a recent opinion issued i by the Attorney General"the Census Board cannot give credit to a municipality for increased population resulting from territorial annexation, unless the Municipality yy has complied fully with the law in annexing territory". + Before final certification of the population figures is made, the Census Board will be required to check with the Secretary of State to ascertain if towns and cities annexing territory have fulfilled all legal requirements. Again, the Census Board urgently suggests that towns and cities with territorial annexations file'the necessary forms with the Secretary of State. If further information concerning annexation re- quirements and procedures is desired, piease write to the Secretary of State. Sincerely yours, (Signed) Calvin F.

These fees would cover the certification of the bonds, the fee for paying and cancelling each bond on call or maturity, the fee for paying coupons and the bank's annual fee as well as'the'fee for disbursing j the Construction fund. In addition to the above fees there is normally a charge for registering bonds as to principal and/or interest. However, the resolution covering this issue does not provide for registration as to either principal or interest. i For acting as trustee for the Transmission Line Replacement Fund, during the period, after the maturity of the bonds, or the earlier call, and before the expiration of the lease, an annual fee of 1/Sth of 1,% of the principal of this account whether invested or held in cash. Reimbursement for all out of pocket expenses. Cancelled bonds and coupons will be returned monthly to the City of Port Townsend. If this fee is satisfactory, we will.appreciate it if you will indicate your approval thereof on the enclosed copy of this letter. We assume that you will wish periodic reports of the investments held in the reserve fund and a statement of the interest collected thereon and the fees of the trustee which are charged against this account.. We assume you will also wish periodic reports of the investments in the Replacement Fund. If it is agreeable to you we will be ple- ased to furnish such reports semiannually or at such shorter periods as you wish. There will be more frequent transactions we assume under the Construction Fund account and we will be pleased to supply you with such statements on this account as you wish.
