Public Works Plan Opens Foot and Wagon Passage Under Rail Tracks
At a Board of Public Works meeting a resolution was passed directing the Soo Line to open a foot and wagon passage through its embankment near the Adler road crossing and a similar passage east of the current crossing near Oak street. The move addresses dangerous approaches and limited visibility due to a curve and rising fills. The board also discussed laying out a five acre cemetery tract with a central fountain, and preparing Connor street tennis courts on Maple street for a revival of the game, naming local experts and officials involved.
