Bessember Common Council Holds December 1949 Session
The Bessem er City Council met December 1949 with Mayor Shaw presiding. After roll call and minutes approval, the Finance Committee recommended payment of general fund claims. A lengthy debate on city car use followed, leading to a two month trial banning private cars for city work and allocating the street department truck to fire and police use with taxi hire allowed in emergencies. Ordinance 154 setting tax day and assessment procedures was adopted, and a resolution to amend the city charter was introduced.
