Village council tables parking meter plan and bids on City Hall
The Pomeroy village council tabled a supplement to the parking meter ordinance proposing 278 meters on riverfront lots with two hour and five cent options. Financing discussions included estimates of 160000 for wall and sewer repairs and a 10500 annual debt over 30 years. Mayor Canaday opposed the higher rate plan, preferring one hour meters to protect local merchants. Also approved bids for City Hall exterior repairs and discussed purchasing flood road property from Lasley heirs.
