Middleport Village Council urged Rep. Walter Moeller to help obtain an additional 296000 in federal Economic Development Administration funds to cover half the 660000 project cost for sewage treatment facilities.

The council also approved a 50 per month lease of a Mill Street lot to Rawlings Garage, affecting nine parking meters, and debated paying 4500 to the Chamber for the Ernest Lewis property while awaiting further federal aid.
