Police get two days rest under by laws amid council session
Two new city ordinances will be recommended by the ordinance committee at tonight's Common Council meeting. One would place police wiring under the fire alarm superintendent, at the request of police and fire boards. The other would grant regular policemen two consecutive days off each month, replacing the current mixed system. The committee will also report unfavorably on itinerant photographer licensing, citing constitutional concerns. A bridge over the harbor foot of State Street and a Main Street building appraisal report are also on the agenda, with several hearings listed.
