City Council tackles tree spraying and street work plan
The council discussed spraying city trees for aphids infesting certain trees and heard a proposal to buy a 3 000 gallon oil tank from the State Highway Commission for Chateau street oiling. Burning garbage remains forbidden by ordinance and must stop, while private plant growth on boulevards needs council permission. Ray McClue asked for a tree limb near Lee Brown’s home to be cut by Montana Power crews and the council approved if McClue arranges the work and no protests arise.
