Council Meets on Water Storage Dam and Tanker Truck Bylaw
City council held a mon day session with three items: a new public works proposal to build a dam across the South Saskatchewan for water intake protection, held in abeyance a tanker truck size bylaw, and the old gas-rate bylaw which passed without debate despite Aldermen Gibson and Smith opposing. Imperial Oil officials attended and discussed the tanker issue with Mayor Weiner and provincial representatives. The meeting focused on committee reports with little debate and no provincial election concern.
