The Pella city council disclosed at the March 17 meeting that it sold the old turbine at the light plant back to Murray Iron Works for 3,000 and approved the sale of the water softening business to C. M. Van Zee of Van Zee Pump and Plumbing of Pella. The council also authorized bids on about 9,000 worth of water main and fittings, approved renting 10 chemical toilets for Tulip Time with the city paying half, and approved purchasing a used ditcher from Vermeer Manufacturing for 2,300. They declined the Highway Commission ditch proposal along Highway 163 due to potential adverse effects on a gas station, and avoided hiring a CPA for REA loan double-entry compliance, preferring REA guidance. A drop box will be added to City Hall for after-hours utility bill deposits.
