Silverton Council Receives
Street Improvement Requests
Statesman News Service
SILVERTON Requests for Improvements and for permission
to make improvements vrere made by the Silverton city council at its
Monday night meeting, presided over by Mayor Errol Ross. All seven
councilmen were present. - - ,
Petitions for extension and enlargement of a water line on Grant
street were presented, with H.
Hagedorn appearing as spokes
man. Hagedorn reported that there
was no water in" the afternoons
during the summer as the line was
too small to accomodate its cus
tomers. E. B. Hyatt, appearing for the
Assembly of God congregation
asked if that body might put the
sidewalk out five feel in the park
I ing as surveys afterlhe church on
' Front and B streets was built,
showed that the church is stand
ing partially on city property. The
congregation wished to have B
street, not improved, graded and
r graveled, and planned to put in 70
feet of five-foot sidewalk along its
B street property.
The Grant street water line was
taken under advisement by the
council, and the decision in the
Pease of the Assembly of God con
gregation was left to the city man
ager. However, councilmen ex
plained that the city did not gravel
or grade streets but that the pro
perty owners would have to do
this.
A request for repairing some
"chuck" .holes " along First street
was made, and Robert Borland,
city manager, was instructed to
grade and fill some of the worst
places along this street. .
Location of Silverton's proposed
' new filtration plant was discuss
ed, with Manager Borland reading
a letter from the city's consulting
engineers in Portland, "the J. W.
Cunningham company, expressing
disapproval of the alternate loca
. tion on the Abiqua and favoring
the suggested location on East Hill
near the present city reservoir.
Both building and maintenance
would be cheaper at the latter lo
cation, the engineers stated. The
matter was left for further consid
eration. The trenching and excavation
en Hobart road for the four-inch
water main extension will bo done
by . B. Xcksten. a Silverton man,
as his bid was the low.
More stringent enforcement of
the law prohibiting dumping ma
terials into Silver creek will be
in order. The council ordered
Chief of Police Victor Grossnlckle
. to give this further attention.
Bids for a 1951 model police car
will be called for by the city coun
cil within the next month, the bids
to be opened when information on
the new models is out.
" Salary Increases for City em-
floyes to meet the higher cost of
ving and the higher income taxes
:' were discussed by councilmen and
Mayor Ross appointed C. H. Dick
rson, George Christensen and C
; B. Anderson to make a survey of
the salaries and to make recom
mendations at the next meeting of
the conncil. The last raise given
city employes was a 10 per cent
raise In July of 1948.
The council discussed a survey
made I of entrances to Silverton
service stations and referred the
matter to the city planning com
mission headed by Rholin Cooley.

Busy Beavers
Block Roads
Near Mehama
By Jean Roberts
Statesman News Service
MEHAMA Oregon is rightly
named the Beaver state, say sev
era! residents In this area who
have sighted beavers lately. One
was recently struck by an auto
mobile and killed above Mill City.
Ed Goshie tells of two Mill City
men who witnessed a small tree
crossing the highway near Marion
Forks. Upon investigating they
found a beaver transporting the
brush and busily intent' upon his
work despite onlookers.
Across the little North Fork from
the Steve Dark home, a family of
beavers seem determined to dam
the water running down a cat road
on the Freres and Frank logging,
Mud and sticks are piled in the
road at each opportunity and must
be dozed out.
Three beaver dams are evident
in the small creek near the Paul
Clise home and still more on the
old Kirsch logging.
Merle Phlllipi, Mehama resident,
has complained to the state game
commission because of destruction
caused by this animal. Beavers,
protected for many years by law,
are controlled by government trap
pers when the number warrants it
It is reported that several have
been caught alive at the fish hatch
ery on Stout creek and then trans
ported to the hills and freed.
