Ambulance Control Program Dropped by City Bureau
The City Bureau of Franchises, after months of debate, voted 4-1 to recommend rescinding a March 21 ambulance regulation. Mayor councilmen and the city manager favored abandoning the ordinance, while one member dissented. Pending council action, the bureau then voted 3-2 to issue permits to six current applicants, including Bowers Ambulance and Rose Garden Chapel Mortuary, with no action on rates.
