Council rejects Scott Street lot purchase for park site
The town debated buying the Scott Street lot for a new community park at an estimated 17,000 dollars. Joe Walk supported the purchase but his motion failed for lack of a second. Mayor Adell Williams favored the park plan while F P Truewell opposed paying that amount, citing better locations. Police Chief Zelma Wyche described the lot as in a gray area and said federal funds could aid development, but fellow councilman C J Jones questioned the price. The council also declined to approve a new ordinance on charging for cutting grass on overgrown lots.
