City Trustees Raise Salaries And Approve Street Plans
At the Tuesday trustees meeting A H Crogs moved to raise the city street superintendent salary from 950 to 1100 monthly, supported by Mueller, with Stobbs and Davis voting no. A proposal to raise the attorney’s fee to 100 was debated, and plans and specs for Sheridan and Victoria avenues were discussed including macadamizing, curbs, gutters, and porphyry curbs. The board reviewed tree removal near Victoria and bids on street contracts, deferring final action and referring engineering details to the city engineer.
