In last night's Common Council session a dispute over the teamsters strike and street closing rights surfaced. Corp Bailey argued police may close streets to regulate use, with aldermen able to authorize temporary closures for repairs or processions.

The meeting also placed on file a report on city finances and passed a $1,000,000 sewer appropriation.
