City awards light contract and passes slum measures
The city council awarded the downtown repair and traffic signals contract to Virgil Cook and Son of DeKalb for 11,636, below the 10,628 estimate. They adopted three ordinances on nuisances from dilapidated buildings, annexed two lots in Black Roads Acres, and formed a public works department joining water and street services. It also closed part of an alley on Marion street parking, noted unmessed meters at Michigan street, and authorized 26,540.37 as first payment on the southwest interceptor sewer to contractor Jack Rodeghier. A letter of condolence was planned for Willis J. Murdock’s family.
