Roads bond plan dominates chamber meeting
The Chamber of Commerce directors approve a report urging a $300,000 road improvement bond issue for Justice Precinct No. 1 with bonds issued in $50,000 blocks and a projected annual tax under $3 per $1,000. The plan covers about 200 miles of roads with a average cost of 1500 per mile and seeks petitions from nearly every taxpaying voter. A street sprinkling contract for business streets is also discussed with a new three member committee empowered to award and manage arrangements.
