Logan Gas Ordinance Shelved Indefinitely
Logan council tabbed the gas franchise ordinance indefinitely to allow more study. Mayor Elias Bright and challenger Kenneth Fitzgerald opposed rate increases, suggesting the issue may fade from campaigns. Budget items largely mirror last year with a $24,000 general fund request and real estate duplicate value down to $5,382,440. The auditor’s report was submitted and a $100 appropriation was made for the health nurse fund to cover part of the nurse’s salary for 1932.
