Town Council Debates Finance and Public Works Measures
Council moved to borrow funds from banks to meet coupon payments with a six month term and 5 percent interest, a costly option criticized as unbusinesslike. The Finance Committee reported a land purchase agreement with Donald Jeffery. a gasoline engine and pump were proposed for town protection. A special rate for skaters was defeated. Wells and water plans were discussed with digging discouraged. Debentures of 7000 dollars at 9 percent were noted. an odd incident involved Peter Burrows carrying water from the weigh scales to Zion Hill.
