City Council Special Session Discusses Bills and Water Supply

The council met Tuesday evening with Mayor Hollis presiding and readings of prior meetings approved. Bills totaling 12 were referred to the finance committee while plans to curtail expenses included abolishing the firewarden office. A petition by J. S. Myrick for city water for street sprinkling was referred to the fire and water committee to estimate charges, with an initial estimate of 6000 gallons daily. The well and water supply were deemed inadequate for severe fires, prompting a plan to dig a 50 foot ditch from the well, costing about 150, to intercept underground water. Additional bills were approved for the city recorder and others, and social funds from Clover Leaf D of H yielded net over $7 with a Cloverge social program audience.
