Last Legal Obstacle Cleared For Gas Service By Next Fall
Graettinger city officials reported the Supreme Court declined to review Opinion 324 of the Federal Power Commission requested by Minneapolis Gas and Omaha. This clears the final hurdle for gas service to Graettinger and nearby towns by fall 1961 with Northern Natural Gas Co. drafting service agreements and town officials weighing them. A December special election authorized the town to execute the agreement. Specifications and contract steps follow once gas service is assured by fall 1961.
