One Local Bidder On Vernal Post Office Building
A single local bidder, M. E. Oaks, aims to secure the Vernal post office building contract after submitting by November 15. Oaks traveled to Salt Lake City for material prices, facing discouragement about the site’s distance from the railroad but proceeding. Plans by Postmaster E. J. Young describe a two story and basement building with a rotunda entrance on Main Street, a park and plaza layout, 462 mail and stamp windows, and office space for the postmaster, main office, and other federal offices. The project, resembling Brigham City and Spantah Fork, promises a bright civic landmark for Vernal.
