Group Named To Determine Drain Costs
A three man committee consisting of Councilmen Bill Schradeeer and John Kriudsen and Town Engineer Ken McDonald was appointed by Mayor M. E.

McDonald indicated to the Town Council that it may be necessary to cap drainage tile if asked prior to paving until such a time as the Town can afford finalization of trunk drain lines.
