East Millfield Bridge Work Approved and Chair Nomination
County commissioners announced at their organizational meeting that bridge work on East Millfield over Sunday Creek will start soon. James Edwards was re elected chairman after a dispute with John Law. Law said he would take the job next year, and Edwards likely will not run in 1968. The $43 010 bridge on County Rd 27 was approved by the state highway department, with a 30 day contract completion goal and bus rerouting due to safety limits. The board plans to hold a bid-signing with Bridge Construction Co. next Monday and rehiring of staff was outlined, with meetings moved to 9 a.m. and 1967 budget discussions continuing.
