U OF W LIBRARY-** EUGERE ORE S ew er Christm as came a little early to Mavor Roy Brimm and the Brookings Council. The C hristm as present was a “gift" you w ouldn t w rite your friends about, but it is very im portant to the people of Brookings. A w rapped up and delivered is the “existing” sew er system. A motion was passed at the Brookings Council m eeting Tues day night authorizing the m ayor to sign an agreem ent, already signed by the citizen claim ants, and Elmer Bankus. which would in effect, sell the existing system to the city for $20.000. and elim ate the bickering which h as kept the city bn edge for the past two years. The agreem ent would also see th e taxpayers injunction against th e city dismissed, and the city w oul$ sta rt condem nation pro ceedings and a title search soon to get the m atter settled finally.
