Citizens Railway protests new franchise for lighting plant
E M Warner attorney for the Citizens Railway and Light company urged city council to deny a franchise to F X Schaefer proposing a 500 light private plant. Warner argued it would be unfair to divert lucrative customers and burden the existing system while promising future citywide service and gas competition risks. He said the CRL company has $400000 invested, a $125000 floating debt, $4000 monthly payroll, and $35000-$40000 planned for summer extensions. He urged granting only to a capable, well capitalized firm to serve the whole city.
