Commission Should Pay For Sewage Repairs
Mayor Charles H. Bowman criticizes the Sewage Commission for seeking $70,000 it claims was borrowed. He says the city should not pay for street repairs caused by sewer lines, noting costs already spent on arrests after sewer work and accusing the commission of delaying action. The commission argues funds were for post-averaging repairs and that its work ended after laying pipes. Next council meeting may trigger court action to recover the $70,000.
