Norton 39 85 Louisa Pitschner . 1 44 Dubuque, Iowa, Dec 2, 1914. To the Honorable Mayor and Council of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: At a recent meeting of your Honorable Body there was re- ferred to me the petition of the Union Electric Company relative to the special assessments which were lev- ied against it for the improvement of Twenty- second Street from the East property line of Couler Avenue to the Chicago Great Western Railway tracks and for the improvement of Couler Avenue from Twenty- second Street north to about fifty feet from the Peru Road. You requested that we furnish you with a written opinion as to the merit of the claim made in said petition. We beg to report that, pursuant to your request, we have made a minute investigation of the records touching upon said improve- ments and the law governing cases of this kind and find as follows, to- wit:— On March 20th, 1913, the original resolution for the improvement of Twenty - second Street from Couler Avenue to the Chicago Great Western tracks was regularly passed by the Council. Following this the succes- sive steps were taken, the improve- ment was completed and the assess- ment prepared in strict compliance with the law. In the center of the street the Union Electric Company owns and operates a street railway which extends along the whole of said improvement. Shortly after said im- provement was ordered by the Coun- cil the City Recorder, in compliance with the provisions of the ordinance relative to street improvements, caus- ed to be served on the managing of- ficer of said railway company a copy of the resolution ordering such im- provement, together with a general description of the nature and t -tent of the work and the kind or kinds of materials to be used. The notice also required of said railway company to designate in writing, within five days, after a service of a copy of the same on said railway company whether or not it proposed and desired to do the work of improvement itself, and in the. event said railway company did not indicate its intention within the time above specified the Council would have the right to order the work done at the expense of the rail- way company. Upon receipt of this notice the Union Electric Company notified the city to do the work un- • der the general contract. Upon the completion of the work the assessment to pay for the same was made and notice when said as- sessment would be acted upon by the Council published. At the meeting set for the approval by the Council of the assessments as made, the prop- erty owners along saiu improvement filed a petition with the Council asking that a rebate be given them from the amount of their assessments as. pro- posed. The Union Electric Company was not among those petitioning for the rebate nor did it at any time file a protest against the assessment as made. The petition of the property owners, together with the assessment roll, was referred to the Committee of the Whole. This Committee on No- vember 6th, 1913, reported in favor of granting a thirty per cent rebate to al abutters on said portion of said street on either side and the Treas- urer was instructed to accept the as- sessments on that basis. Subsequent to this time the Union Electric Com- pany offered to Pay its assessment for the paving between the tracks and a foot outside thereof on the basis of the thirty per pent reduction. It was told that this rebate did not apply to the Union Electric Company. On February 20th, 1913, the original resolution for the improvement of Couler Avenue from Twenty-second Street to about fifty feet of the Peru Road was presented to the Council and passed and the improvement or- dered. The same prelimiarY steps were taken with reference to this im- provement as were followed with the improvement of Twenty-second Street. The Union Electric Company was no- tified as above indicated and in due time it addressed a communication to the Council authorizing the work to be done by the general contractor. The work was completed and the as- sessment duly prepared. When said assessment was before the Council for adoption, the property owners along this improvement filed a peti- tion with the City Council asking for a rebate in their assessments, and al- leging equitable grounds why said re- bate should be granted. The Union Electric Company was not one of these petitioners although it operates a street railway the full length of said improvement. This petition was re- ferred to the Committee of the Whole on January 19th, 1914, said Commit- tee reported in favor of granting a rebate of thirty per cent to all abut- ters, but specifically indicated that this rebate should not apply to the Union Electric Company. This report was approved by the Council. The Union Electric Company now asks that it be given the same considera- tion that was afforded the abutters who petitioned the council. The petition of the union Electric Company bases its right to a rebate the same as was given abutters, upon the legal proposition that there must be uniformity in taxation, both gen- eral and special, and asserts that a denial to the Union Electric Com- pany of the same consideration as giv- en abutters offends against that ele- mentary proposition. In our opinion that is not true. Uniformity of taxa- tion means that there shall be dis- crimination between persons, corpora- tions or associations similarly situat- ed or occupying like positions. In other words in making an assessment uniformity of taxation means that all individuals and all classes shall be uniformly taxed and that all must con- tribute uniformly with like individu- als and like classes to these burdens. The Union Electric Company, as a railway and located as it is, occupies an entirely different status in the law than do ordinary individuals who are property owners along the improve- ments. The Legislature of the State has enacted a general statute provid- ing just how an assessment against a street railway company shall be made. Section 834 of the Code of 1897 is as follows, to -wit:— Sec. 834. All railway and street railway companies shall be required to make, re- construct and repair all paving, graveling or macadamizing between the rails of their tracles, and one foot outside thereof, at their own expense, and such improve- ment, or the re- construction or re- pair thereof, shall be of the material and character ordered by said city, and shall he done at the same time that the remainder of said improve- ment is made, re- constructed or re- paired. They shall keep the paving, graveling or macadamiz- ing between said rails, and one foot outside thereof, up to grade and in good repair If the owner of said railway or street railway shall fail or refuse to com- ply with the order of the Council to make, re- construct or repair such pav- ing, graveling or macadamizing, such work may be done by the city, and the cost and expense thereof shall be assessed upon the real estate and per- sonal property of said railway or street railway company within the corporate limits of said city, and against such railway or street rail- way company, in the manner herein - before provided for the assessment of such cost against abutting property and the owners thereof." This statute, by express terms, cov- ers the assessment Sof the Union E was tric Company. given the opportunity to construct the improvements ordered by the Council itself if it saw fit to do so. Instead of making the improvements itself it sig- nified its willingness that the work 658 Regular Session, December 3, 1914 . should be done by the general con- tractor. Under the statute and by vir- tue of the ordinances of the City of Dubuque all railway companies must pay the expense of any improvement whether it does the work itself or the city orders the work done for it. If the Union Electric Company saw fit to make, • the improvements itself, could it be contended, with any de- gree of success that the City of Du- buque could be compelled to, stand any portion of the expense? We think not. Then again, if the improvement be made by the city and the statute provides that the costs and expense thereof shall be assessed against the real estate and personal property of the railway company. In a word it matters not who makes the improve- ment the railway company must stand the expense thereof. In a very liberal sense the improvement belongs to the railway company and it is charged with the duty to keep the same in repair and up to grade. This is not true of the ordinary abutter. An improvement once paid for is taken care of by the city so far as repairs are concerned. Further, the statute provides how a street improvement shall be paid for by property owners living adja- cent to or within a certain distance from the improvement. It also pro- vides that the assessment shall be made according to benefits and even then must be limited to a certain per cent of .the value of the property to be charged with the tax. This is not true of railway companies as a per- usal of the statute above cited will show. So that it is plain that rail- way companies are governed by a sep- arate and distinct set of rules regard- ing special assessments which differ materially from those pertaining to property owners. This is so because railway companies are in a class by themselves and are governed by spec- ial statutes. The question of uni- formity of taxation therefore has no application in a case of this kind. Finally, the City Council has a right to consider the petition of the prop- erty woners abutting upon the above improvements and grant them what- ever rebate it considered just. There were good and sufficient reasons why the prayer of the petition should be granted which reasons in no manner applied to the Union Electric Com- pany. In fact the Union Electric Company never requested a rebate on its assessment and, in our opinion, if it had it should not have received any. In granting to the property owners the rebate in question, the Council merely made a gift of the thirty per cent to them on account of very spec- ial reasons which need not be dis- cussed here. This did not discrimi- nate unjustly or at all against the Union Electric Company because as before stated the property owners and the Union Electric Company are two and distinct entities and belong to different classes. The fact that a re- bate was granted to the property own- ers did not impose' an extra burden upon the Union Electric Company. Its assessment remained the same after the rebate was made as it was before. Nothing has been done to prejudice or injure the Union Electric Com- pany. On the other hand they have done nothing to convince the Council `that a rebate should be granted them. By way of deviation 1 might refer to the fact that the Union Electric Com- pany has paid its first installment on their assessment. The City Council, should it be willing to grant the Union Electric Company a rebate on its assessments now, would he assum- ing a debt or obligation to the City of Dubuque which legally and right- fully belongs to the Union Electric Company. Concluding we beg to report, in our opinion, there is no merit in the peti- tion of the Union Electric Company as disclosed by its petition and we would, therefore, recommend that the same be received and filed. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Wallis the report of the City Attorney was approved. Dubuque, Iowa, Dec. 2, 1914. To the Honorable Mayor and Council of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: George D. Wybrant, City Treasurer, has informed me that the Dubuque and Dunleith B.ridge Co., has repeatedly expressed its desire to pay its taxes for the year 1913, pro- viding that the same be accepted up- on the valuation as placed by Judge Bonson of the District Court. As you remember the question of the valua- tion of the high Bridge was before the court during the May term thereof and finally adjudicated. It Was deemed advisable to the city to accept the valuation as placed by the court for the year 1912, because there were several questions involved in that suit which touched the making of the as- sessment which were of great import- ance to the city. The same conditions exist in regard to the taxes for the year 1913, and I feel that I ought to advice your honorable body that it would expedient for you to accept the taxes of said bridge company for the year 1913 upon the same valuation as placed by the Court for the year 1912 Regular Session, December 3, 1914. 659 and recommend that the Treasurer be instructed accordingly. Respectfully submitted. M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Wailis the re- port of the City Atorney was ap- proved. Dubuque, Iowa, Dec. 2, 1914.

We have ex- amined said bill and find no merit in the same as far as the city is con- cerned. We would, therefore, recom- mend that the same be received and filed. Respectfully yours, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Clancy the re- port of the City Attorney was ap- proved. Dubuque, Ia., Dec. 10, 1914, To the Honorable Mayor and Council of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: At a recent meeting of your honorable body the petition of T. E. Rhomberg for the cancella- tion of the personal property tax against certain lots, was submitted to me for report. The petition dis- closes the fact that the lots therein described formerly belonged to B. F. Richardson & Company; that in the year 1904 a tax was levied upon the personal property of said B. 1. Ricn- ardson & Company, which was not paid and became a lien against the lots described in the petition; that these lots were subsequently sold Dy the county for taxes and the petitioner holds the Treasurer's deed therefor; the petitioner now desires to pay the city taxes which are against said lots and asks the Council to cancel the personal property tax above men- tioned. After a careful investigation of the law governing the question of tax- ation, we give it as our opinion that the City Council has not the right to cancel the taxes of the above petition - , er. Our conclusion is based upon the theory that all taxation must be uni- form, equal and without discrimina- tion. That the City Council has only such powers and can do only sucn things as are expressly conferred up- on it by the legislature, or are neces- sarily implied in the general powers conferred. Where power is granted to municipal corporations to levy taxes, the exercise of such power is. a duty and can be compelled by any- one who would be injured by a neg- lect to tax. Neither has the munici- pality through its Council the right to create an exemption from taxation, as exemptions are provided by the legislature alone. Taxing statutes are strictly construed and where a doubtful Regular Session, December 17, 1914. 681 power is attempted to be exercisea the doubt will always be construed against the right to exercise sucn power. There is no statute in Iowa which provides for a remission or can- cellation of taxes once legally leviea, except in certain instances and those instances are not applicable to special charter cities. By granting the prayer of this, petitioner the Council would be overstepping its authority, as it would be exercising a power not conferred upon it by law. These being the conditions it is our opinion that the prayer of the petition be not granted. We feel that at this time your at- tention should also be•called to a prac- tice which has been followed by you for some time. I refer to the custom of allowing taxes to remain a lien upon real estate instead of following the regular course of sale when taxes become delinquent. The statute pro- vides what shall be done when taxes become delinquent and as -far as we know there is no exceptions to the rule. Taxes until paid are always a lien against the real estate. There is no provision by express statute or by implication which confers the right upon the Council to allow taxes to accumulate from year to year without enforcing the legal remedy for their collection. It is our opinion that this custom is illegal and should not con- tinue. We would therefore ask your honorable body to refrain from grant- ing any petition in the future where it is asked that a different method De followed regarding taxation than is expressly provided by statute. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Singrin the re- port of the City Attorney was ap- proved.
