Docks Commission Finalizes Land Purchase For Shipyard Project
The Alabama Docks Commission paid Marmotte Wharf owners to resolve a dispute over a 2400 foot strip on One Mile Bay side. A Montgomery high court ruling rejected the land claim, clearing the way for dock development plans approved in 1930. The commission met with General William L. Sibert and Frank G. Blair to finalize transfers and outline factory site use. A Lions Club musical program and an upcoming Gulf Fishing and Hunting Club outing are noted in community notices.
