New Officials at Council Meeting
Mayor Maury Maverick and new commissioners met Thursday in a session that included discussions on vacation back pay for several city workers in the fire and police departments. The measure failed due to absent commissioners but may be reconsidered upon the return of Steffer. Appropriations were approved for retirement, pensions, advertising, and various city projects, while a studio was contracted to create posters for the advertising commission and bids for river improvements and printing were awarded.
