• CITY COUNCIL NEWS HIGHLIGHTS •
Garbage collection, along with
the Barnette St. right-of-way,
turned out to be the hot points
in Monday’s Fairbanks City
Council meeting.
A review' of refuse collection
rates w'as postponed for turo
w’eeks, but garbage collection
still dominated a portion of the
meeting.
Instigating the discussion was a
letter from Mrs. Ingeborg Wilson
of Hamilton Acres objecting to the
collection of 3 per cent sales tax
outside the City by several service
companies. Mrs. Wilson pointed out
that only 2 per cent tax should be
charged for areas outside the City
limits. Among the businesses charg
ing 3 per cent was Fairbanks Gar
bage Disposal Co.
Bernie MilW of Fairbanks Gar
bage explained that his firm had
been collecting 3 per cent. He stated
that a decision should be made as
to whether the service was per
formed at the home, where the gar
bage is picked up. or at the City
dump, where it is disposed of.
City Attorney Barry Jackson
stated that in such an instance, the j
point of pick-up was the point of
service, so only 2 per cent should
be charged. He expanded this de
cision to point out that the same
thing applied to delivered sales; that 1
the sale actually took place at the
point of delivery. Under this in- i
terpretation. goods bought inside the
City but delivered outside the City
should only be assessed 2 per cent.
Miller then defended his firm’s ;
actions by pointing out that the i
City should receive something from
out of town garbage collections, as
the garbage is disposed of at the
City dump. Otherwise, he stated,
the City is subsidizing outside-the
city residents by providing dump
facilities at no cost.
City Attorney Jackson then point
ed out that the only subsidy was to
the garbage collectors, who were
not paying dumping fees on foreign
(non-city) garbage. After some dis
cussion the Council decided that
garbage trucks carrying foreign gar
bage should be assessed normal
dumping fees of $1 per load.
Barnette Widening
The proposed widening of Bar
nette Street drew fire from Coun
cilman Darrell Brew’ington.
Brewington attacked a plan pro
posed by City engineers to widen
Barnette to 60 feet. He stated that
such a plan would involve the pos
sible moving of the entire N.C. Co.
office, complete with vault, at a
cost of about $50,000.
Brewington also objected to the
60 foot width because such a plan
would probably cause a year delay
in the Barnette paving. He urged
paving Barnette at 40 feet, saying.
“I think that by paving the existing
north-south streets of Noble, Cush
man and Barnette we will be doing
what the taxpayers want.” He said
the voters have had enough “wait
ing ’til next year.”
Brewington then moved the City
nanager proceed with the perma
lent paving of Barnette Street at 40
’eet. The motion died for lack of a
second. ».*l
Councilman Ted Cox stated that
m felt Barnette should be widened
o 60 feet, even if it meant waiting
m additional year.
Councilman Tom Roberts took
he same stand as Cox. stating, “I
:hink it’s a chance for us to have j
! good street for once.” He went
>n to propose that perhaps that
portion of Barnette between First
and Seventh could be paved this
pear. He then moved that the City
Manager proceed with negotiations
to widen Barnette to 60 feet, and
to try and get Barnette between
First and Seventh paved this year.
The motion passed, with Brew
ington opposing it.

JESSEN'S WEEKLY
Election returns from the April
24 Bonding Election were not can
vassed at the meeting. City Clerk
Wally Droz explained that he was
still checking the voting lists for
ineligible voters. He said that seven
unqualified people had been allowed
to vote in the first five precincts.
City Attorney Jackson pointed
out that if twenty-two or more un
qualified voters had been allowed
to vote, the entire City election
was invalidated.
Liquor License
A request for a liquor license
transfer from the PX Liquor Store
to Francis Wirth and Lloyd Levi
at the International Liquor Store
was postponed for one week, for j
further investigation. City Manager
Nordby had reported that the In
ternational Hotel was 178 ft. from
the Immaculate Conception Church. 1
and that a granting of the license
would violate a State law prohibit- '
ing liquor stores or bars within
200 ft. of a church.
After several months of discus
sion and motions, Dr. Frank Spaul- !
ding was finally given a deed re-N
striction. allowing him to use his 1
now-multiple residential zoned
property at the corner of 15th and
Arport Way as a clinic.
The City Attorney was instructed j
to move the polling place for the
Fifth Precinct from the library to 1
the new Fire Station in time for the
next election.
The Council approved the pur
chase of 80,00(1 gallons of road oil
from Standard Oil Co. and agreed to
ship the oil via the Alaska Rail
road. Mayor Ribar pointed out that
the $6,908 railroad shipping charge
was almost three-quarters of the
price of the oil < $8,039'.
