City plans aim to aid local builders in bids
Mayor Cather and city commissioners discussed making multiple sets of plans and specifications available in the city office at no cost to ensure fair bidding for local contractors. They favor using Grafton tradesmen where possible and will not sign a contract until operating costs of gas radiator heating in city hospitals are fully evaluated. Heating units installed by a Clarksburg firm last month are under review for cost efficiency. Other routine ordinances and city finances were addressed with bills ordered paid.
