Eudora Council Advances Elderly Home and Library Plans
The Eudora City Council moved toward a new elderly home by approving a plan with Eudora Development Co to select a site and prepare designs and estimates funded by the firm. The council also discussed city library support and land options near the Main Street fire station. Building permits and expenditures were reported, and zoning notices were issued to junk yard operators with fines possible. A cereal malt beverage license faced delays pending inspection, and a city recreation commission was created with five members to oversee activities.
