Real Estate Group Presses City on Water Rates
A large Real Estate Dealers association delegation crowded the aldermanic chamber last night to press for lower water rates. The city officialdom was busy, and the visitors left without revealing their plan. They will appear before the Department of Public Works this afternoon to push for broader rate reforms and broader property tax considerations. The effort targets a fairer municipal charge across properties of varying worth as a larger plan to distribute the water costs more evenly. A separate note mentions a disturbance and a street incident on South Wishy Street involving residents and law enforcement.
