Bluefield Board Hears Street Work Plans and Cemetery Vandalism

The board praised student attendance from Bluefield State College and issued several building permits totaling thousands of dollars. A cemetery vandalism report led to a pledge of full prosecution. Parking Building April income reached 6,681.71 with a net profit of 2,308.54. A state sinking fund payment left a small profit.
