City approves ten thousand for legal defense against suits
The mayor and Board of Aldermen set aside ten thousand from the Emergency Fund to pay the city attorney for extra duties and hire more lawyers to handle lawsuits against the city. Mayor Ronald N. Young called lawsuits a regular matter and said six or seven cases overwhelm the city attorney under the current contract. He cited cases including an injunction request on the South Market Street underground wiring project, a referendum petition on relocating Independent Hose Company, and a China Pearl Restaurant compensation suit. The move aims to shield taxpayers from rising costs, though some aldermen voiced reluctance.
