Saloons gain curtail changes and new licenses in city council action
City council votes to allow saloons to hang curtains and swap furniture, restoring some privileges after repeal. An ordinance sets a three month liquor license period from July 1, and other measures address state land titles, Sunday closing law enforcement, a gun ordinance with $200 fine, and retail dealer licensing. Engineer Duerr proposes a city hall with jail and fire rooms at an $8,000 cost, while an auditor is sought to review two years of town books.
