City Council Votes to Plank Wishkah Street and Repair Front Street
The council met with mayor Anstie and most members present to address Front street obstructions near Cousins shipyard. They ordered clearing the north half to Benn street and approved sidewalk builds in South Aberdeen. Planking Wishkah street from the city dock to Broadway was authorized, with further time requested for G street and Third street work. Other actions included water main extension to Broadway and Third, various permits, an updated liquor license, fire escapes, and a marshal house numbering order. District committees were appointed to study roads east of the city and railroad access around the bluff. Multiple bills from local contractors and suppliers were approved for road, lumber, and jail services. Resolutions in memory of Albert Dreyer were adopted by Quinsault Tribe No. 14.
