Orono Trustees Consider Dog Tax and Sewer Costs

Orono Police Trustees met in the Hydro office with a full agenda. Chairman E R Woodyard announced a complete financial statement for the Road department by October first and discussed a Duchess Street storm sewer project with catch basins on Church Street estimated at 2500 dollars, Simpson suggesting 3500 dollars. No action on dismissals from the Fire Department were taken as a meeting with the Fire Chief will be arranged. The secretary was authorized to set up the Fire Chief meeting and a full financial report was to be prepared before the next meeting. A letter to Council proposing a dog tax of 10 dollars was discussed but no action was taken. The meeting concluded with notes on race results from the Invitation trot and Speedway Pat.

Athletic to Pay Full Cost of Rink Transformer

A delegation from the Orono Athletic Association told the Orono Hydro Commission they were surprised by total charges for three rink transformers. They believed costs would be about $800, but the bill reached $1100. Hydro’s Dent said the $800 covered transformers only, not controls or installation. The commission agreed to waive interest if the account is settled promptly, and blamed miscommunication within the association and no written agreement.
