In a special session last Monday city clerk Jack Vaughan announced August 8 1972 as the filing deadline for Saline Council or Mayor positions. The council formed a purchasing committee led by Jim Gross to work with department heads on quotes inventories and schedules. Police Chief James Levlett said bus stops at N and S Ann Arbor St are not in use until a firm employee transport contract is secured, likely delaying a decision until September. Parking spaces will revert to paid meters with one meter installed. City Attorney Allan Grossman reported a condemnation suit over Leutheuser property near the east Saline shopping center and a bid to consolidate related cases was granted, with no trial date set.
