Mason County Courthouse Plan Rejected Bond Hopes
A delegation of civic and business leaders told Mason County Commissioners that a new courthouse jail complex could be funded without bonds by selling the current courthouse site and using a $20 010 treasury fund plus a small local levy. The county court debated printing ballots for a special levy, but no action was taken due to commissioner's misunderstanding. Local clubs are promoting Sixth Street as a business center just outside flood areas as plans proceed for future discussions.
