City Council to reconsider loan terms for water main project
City seeks to repass a loan resolution after conflicts between the promissory note with the water company and the legislative act authorizing the loan. The solicitor will propose a harmonized resolution and bond, with security debated. The guaranty bond may run to 160 000 dollars, backed by water mains as collateral, while guarantors flag risks if the company defaults on interest. Secretary Denman is away, possible Portland trip noted.
