City council meets on proposed north Thomson road opening
A special city council meeting discussed opening a road north from the Troublesome creek bridge near the old cold storage, noting land for public highway lies within Atlantic city limits. Since interested parties sent only a petition to the board of supervisors, no action could be taken. When opened, the road north of the water works will close.
