Anderson Loses Move to Refer Buying Dept Back to Committee
City notes a tense council session with Councillor Anderson failing to secure a majority to refer the purchasing department abolition back to committee. The main motion was tabled amid inaction on other items as seven principal figures, plus four absentees, shaped the night. Local reports mention council gossip, retirements, and bids on street and welfare appropriations as the session ends.
