Conflicting Views On Bridge Costs In Flood Control
A meeting of the flood control committee of the Chamber of Commerce debated the costs of five highway bridges for a flood control ditch. Figures by city and county engineers differed, with estimates ranging toward 600000, and a larger saving if the state covers bridge costs. The group discussed wording of enabling legislation for Pima County to cooperate with federal flood control efforts and indemnify the U.S. against damages.
