Election of Officers Marks First Meeting of New Council
A mixed crowd packed the Hive room as the new council gathered last Tuesday to elect officers and set the city’s course. Alderman Volfman was chosen president, with ballots cast for street, health, marshal, and surveyor posts, while existing officers were reappointed to police duties. The city faces a cash shortage with delinquent taxes totaling about $5,000 and only $268.30 available in the general fund, prompting talk of financial strain and limited borrowing options.
