Nelsonville Council Passes Appropriation Ordinance
Nelsonville council adjourned after suspending rules to approve funds for city operations for the 1934 fiscal year starting January 1. The final ordinance allocates across departments with totals including general fund, safety, health, auto tax, water works, electric light, relief, and excise bonds. A street cave-in from CWA work on Wes Chestnut Street prompted investigation and a plan to confer with the CWA director in Athens. A resolution authorizing a contract with a local physician to serve the poor for the rest of the year was amended by replacing mayor with service director.
