City Council Debates Hall Move and Fire Protection Plans
The regular council meeting with most members present discussed moving the city hall to the dock site and installing a 5 horsepower boiler for fire protection. Bids were $625 from George Taylor and $795 from George Lee for the move, while Ed Abl quoted $1,590 for boiler and fittings. An ensuing vote tabled the fire protection proposal amid concerns over debt and upcoming council turnover. The treasurer Bert Myers reported $1,194.93 in outstanding taxes collected, leaving about $1,075 to remit to the city treasury and limited realty delinquent balances remaining uncollected. The clerk’s financial statement showed a net general fund debt and the city’s overall finances, with a $1,075.40 credit to the general fund.
