Wheelan seeks access to Marshfield water works records in Carl shortages case
A letter from W K Wheelan of Grand Rapids to Marshfield officials requests the right to inspect the water works books relating to Louis G Carl shortages. The communication argues Carl must review the books with the insurer and states Carl resists private offices. The council has demanded bond payment from United States Fidelity & Guaranty Company and notes exams have occurred at Roddis Lumber vaults. The report recommends city attorney lead, seeks a lawsuit if needed, and outlines expenses for clerks and audit work.
