Mayor's veto on franchise bill upheld
Mayor Cotterill's veto of the Taylor avenue franchise to Puget Sound Traction Light Power Co. was sustained by a unanimous council vote. The measure would have granted 22 years use of the street with a cheap bridge costing about 8000, while the mayor noted interlineation altering terms and questioned councilmen's awareness. The intended plan favored a permanent bridge over the entire street, implying higher costs and changes to the city street system.
