Paving-At-Cost Plan Reduces City paving Bill
A Colorado Springs style of paving at actual cost spreads nationwide after a banker in Iowa adopted the idea from a 1922 Colorado Springs project. The Myron Stratton Home owned streetcar lines and funded a bid that cut costs by using a central plant, rock-crushing operations, and a guaranteed price, finishing in 15 months with substantial savings for the city and a functioning paving plant now owned by taxpayers.
