City Mayor aims for zero tax or utility hikes in 1986
Allan Coyle reports Mayor Ted Grimm plans no municipal tax or utility rate increases for 1986 in his first post election council briefing. The plan hinges on wage settlements and utility income, with council unsure about early predictions and potential provincial flowback changes. The budget aims to use oil-well profits for capital, debt reduction, and tax relief while considering early debt payments and a provincially funded campground via private sector lease.

Top level approval eyed in priest’s abduction case
Polish secret police captain Grzegorz Piotrowski testified that the plan to kidnap and kill Rev. Jerzy Popieluszko was approved at the very top of the Interior Ministry, and that a deputy minister likely knew of the scheme. He said the decision came from higher authorities and admitted beating the priest and disposing of his body. He named no deputy minister and his co-defendants questioned prior statements about approval by Poland's secret police chief.
