Council Learns—
Continued from page 1
Whrn deluded niommcndd
from the Cit\ Planning
CommuMun regarding pat kmc <>n
Palmer stints were read. Coun
oilmen and City Clerk William
Head joined in a criticism of the
commission for "getting the cart
before the horse *'
"Don’t they know we can't do
anything on the streets of Pal
mer until we Ret that map they're
upposcd to be working on?" one
.if them asked.
Several weeks ago the Council
had appropriated $500. authoriz
ing the planning commission to
go ahead in the preparation of a
map that would describe ail
known boundaries within the
city and to describe them. The
•leadline was April 15.
Head pointed out the urgent
need lor a city map with descrip
tions of meets, bounds, and
ownership in order to get ease
ments and deeds to the streets of
Palmer for the city. Four months
ago. Head stated, R. C. Caldwell
of Thomas B. Bourne and Associ
ates had indicated the serious
necessity of getting this work
done so the city could acquire
ownership or easements for city
streets before the water distri
bution system could be put in.
"Until we do this." Head said,
“we have no control over the
streets of Palmer. We don’t even
have the authority to dig a
trench.”
By implication Head was tell
ing the Council that any day they
might get a wire from Don Wil
son. similar to the wire received
yesterday, in which he would ask
for immediate assurance that the
city had ownership of its streets.
It ;s believed that there will be
no trouble with platted subdi
visions such as the ARRC’s, but
figuring out the boundaries of
streets in unplatted areas will be
a difficult chore.
The City Clerk reported that
$5,050 had been received from the
Territory on refunds from liquor
licenses granted in Palmer. He
reported a balance in the city
account of $12,403.43 with the
above check On thi* information
1h<‘ Council voted In pay the re
maining $S,76fi.62 owed on

•f a used mad (trader purchased
from the ARC last fall for $200
Now the city has tv.o pieces of
heavy mad equipment in first
class condition and all paid for.
In an informal review of all
receipts and expenditures, which
will be presented in a full report
at the next mend inn. Head an
nounced that the city has taken
in $31,572.52 in tho first six
months the sales tax has been in
operation.
At the next session the Coun
cil will return its attention to
two ordinances that await their
final readings: the health ordin
ance and the curfew ordinance.
The less you have to do with
some folks the less you are
worse off.
