City declines slough ownership in Muscatine amid assessments
Muscatine officials at a special city council meeting rejected taking ownership of the Muscatine slough even as the state would reimburse. Aldermen raised questions about terms for accepting the site, while approving paving assessments in districts 44 and 45 and authorizing street improvement bonds to contractor William L Nusser. The M and W Chevrolet dealership won permission to install a gasoline curb pump on Third Street if placed sufficiently west to avoid boulevard stop interference.
