Decision against hiring engineer worries mayor
Mayor John G. Christy voiced concern over the City Council Finance Committee's choice not to hire an engineer to oversee the new pumping station and sewage treatment plant. The committee preferred using current housing and building inspectors, arguing they can handle construction and that a new engineer would cost the city about $33,000. Christy doubted any staff member besides city engineer Ed Rackers could supervise, but Rackers called the role a full-time job. Construction was slated to begin November 15.
