Foot Bridge Plan Prompts Special City Council Session
A movement to build a temporary foot bridge across the Cedar River at Fifth Street was discussed at a Monday night special council meeting. The proposal, signed by Fred W. White and 19 others, asks for a temporary crossing during bridge removal and reconstruction. The matter was referred to bridge contractors to assess cost and feasibility, with one side of the old bridge possibly kept open during work. The meeting also notes the sale of a portion of Lafayette street land, and the council authorized purchasing cable for underground fire alarm wiring and for a private police telephone to cross the bridge.
