The Iddietown Retail Merchants Association Loading Zone Committee urges the police chief to provide off street parking first. Jerome Inwood and Boy Patterson said downtown parking needs immediate off street facilities before adding truck loading zones.

The proposal to create 12 loading zones was noted but delayed until off street parking is established. The recommendation will go to City Manager H. W. Starick.
