City considers sewer system and drill hall bylaw
A municipal meeting debated starting a sewer network with trunk lines and temporary pipes to avert disease during drought. A Morse Creek bridge project was proposed at 35,000 funded by the city and 100,000 shared with provincial and Grand Trunk Pacific contributors. The drill hall bylaw was urged as a militia HQ and community recreation site, contingent on city land. The school bylaw highlighted urgent need for new Jorden Street school to serve high and primary grades, ahead of other public works.
