Myrtle Creek Bond
Issue Still Waits
Commission Okay
A proposed $250,000 bond issue
for construction of a water filtra
tion plant at Myrtle Creek stiil is
awaiting the go-ahead trom the
State Bond Commission.
The Myrtle Creek City Council
set aside a proposed Dec. 27 an
nexation election date Tuesday
night because the commission
hasn't granted approval of the pro
posal, according to Mrs. Ruth Ev
ans. News-Review correspondent.
The commission enters the pic
lure because it financed the city's
sewer system, and the city's obli-
gallons
tions still are outstanding
The annexation of the Kast Myr
tle area probably depends on
whether the water bonds are pass
ed by voters in the city, Mrs. Ev
ans reported. The state commis
sion also is reported to be studying
a condition in the proposal that
the city may sell water to out
lying areas.
City Recorder G. D. Myllenbeck
said todav that SXVOoti of the pro
posed bonds would be earmarked
for carrying water to the East
Myrtle area, should it be annexed. 1
The annexation election had been
set up tentatively for Dee. ?7, but
the City Council took no action on
an election date Tuesday night.
Myllenbeck said it possibly will
be held in January.
In other action, the council ap
pointed Mrs. V. V. Haney to a
four-year term on the library
! board and Maurice Stanley to a
two-year term to replace J. B.
; Nelson on the library hoard. Del
Williams was named to the park
hoard lo replace the Rev. Dorothy
Dent.
The council agreed to meet with
the school board Tuesday night to
discuss a traffic hazard near the
high school. It also inspected col
lection boxes lor pirking fines sim
ilar to those used in Roseburg.
