City council adjourns with absent members and a stalled public works board
An adjourned St Johns city council meeting saw five present while Councilman Thompson was absent and Brice left for a school board meeting. Debate centered on a controversial board of public works ordinance granting broad power over utilities and franchises, which was sidetracked amid strong opposition and concerns of hidden terms. The sewer plans by City Engineer Goodrich, business and residence numbering proposals, and other items were discussed, then adjourned with remaining details approved.
