Council Adopts Sewer Ordinance After Hospital Question
A special select council meeting at City Hall approved the second reading of ordinance No. 8 for the Hospital Street sewer project. Carbondale Emergency Hospital representatives argued the plan places the sewer gate 200 feet from the hospital and urged the hospital donate 1000 dollars. The council unanimously passed the ordinance on final reading as Chief McAndrew requested a mileage book. Councilman Pletcher defended press coverage, calling it yellow journalism, and the meeting adjourned.
