City Board Adopts Laws To Control Garbage Collection In Bluefield
The Bluefield city board approved two ordinances, banning Saturday garbage pickups in business districts after 10 and protecting land boundaries and markers from damage. A ministerial group met the board, speed concerns near Wade school prompted talks of a patrol or traffic light, and a survey was ordered before a permanent solution. Building permits were issued for four projects, including a $6,000 repair on a two story dwelling.
