Election cost share and water plans dominate council session
The Centralia council met Tuesday with Mayor Galvin and most members present. Theodore Huss opposed a special election to extend city limits while offering to cover election costs if the vote failed. Officials set Sept 23 for an annexation vote and discussed water and light expansion, with Mayor Galvin cautioning against heavy spending and favoring use of existing dynamos. The meeting also covered licensing, a dance show permit, Centralia Day logistics, and a road and sewer project plan, plus a farewell for Rev. Jesse E. Rhodes.
