City Council Refuses to Pay Bill for Entertaining Congressman
The city council declined to approve a $75 payment for hosting Congressman James C. Oliver, who spoke Monday night under the Townsend club. The meeting also reviewed streetcar track contracts, supervisor salaries, snow removal, clock repairs, and security upgrades, with several items referred to the finance committee for recommendation. Protests were filed against parking restriction removals on Washington Street, and traffic lights at Washington and Center Streets were authorized as a five year, $84 yearly unit expense charged to city funds.
