Parking Lot Salvage Debate Includes City Worker Pay Hike
Early in September a city committee examined a cracked bulging parking lot wall near the river. An engineer found shallow foundations and no mortar but said drainage and sealing could preserve the lot. digging or dirt removal risked collapse. The council also moved to remove a no parking sign by Massar Grocery, granted a 20 percent city employee salary increase, adopted water rate readings, shifted funds to repair and sewer projects, advertised bids for city hall lease, updated street lighting, and enjoined a two hour parking rule on several streets.
