City Council Holds Quiet Session Amid Warm Night
The Cambridge city council met in a mild session with brief remarks. The mayor sought a 250000 loan for tuberculosis hospital upgrades and additions while the city solicitor clarified the councils powers over police stations and reserve officer salaries. The solicitor said the council has legislative authority only over policing numbers and not administrative power. He supported reopening Stations 8 and 4 and ensuring patrols, ambulances, and adequate staffing in districts. The council also faced questions on reserve salaries and approved appointing A Frank Montgomery for a one year term. The mayor's request for a Bullock Fund ordinance went to Finance, with the will directing dental care funding for school children aged 5 to 15.
