City Council Considers Arches on Main Street Illumination Plan
The committee proposed erecting arches along Main Street and decorating South Main and Oregon streets with red, white and green colors for a city celebration. City Attorney said no legal authority for an appropriation, but Aldermen supported a $500 work order to build arches, while Pinkerton opposed and Steckbauer abstained. The council voted to allow arches with limited cost, and to repeal the decoration committee if no expense was incurred.
