Paving Plans Expand East Third Avenue and City Routes
The city commission approves East Third and West Third paving from the Texas Refinery to McMasters Street and Van Buren to McMasters, plus a county paving along the Tri-State fairgrounds north side. New routes will connect to U S Highway 66 and provide all paved access to the fairgrounds. The panel denies Amarillo Bus Co request to end Sunday service in Glenwood, approves surfacing West Fifteenth Avenue, and considers sewer and water main extensions along Ninth Tenth and Eighth avenues. A new house moving and occupation license ordinance is passed, and three-inch water mains are authorized to Sanborn and Buchanan Street schools.
