CENTRAL POINT AMERICAN. CENTRAL POINT, OREGON__________________________ THURSDAY. JUNE 7, 19S6 PAGE SIX Gold Hill Parents Outline Plans For Recreation Area By Adah Jones GOLD HILL—A group of par ents, with T. J. Netzel as spokes man, appeared before the June meeting of Gold Hill city council this week and reported plans for a recreational area below the Rogue River bridge east of town. Facilities for picnicking were mentioned and it was suggested that the city may be able to help with the road to the area. Water-water-water seems to be the city’s big problem—to meter and filter or to remain a slow- growing city because of long periods of muddy water as has been the case in the past. Archie Price, of the firm of engineers, reported on the sur vey made the past few weeks. An easily understood copy of the survey was given councilmen and is available for anyone to read. This contains drawings, statistic ?nd posts for a Altera tion plant. As fire dinger season is draw ing near, the council voted to have fire trails plowed around the city dump and along north aide of town and to have grass cut on vacant lots. Acting mayor Floyd Lance appointed Harry Foley to fill out the term of Carl Whitford, resigned. Councilmen present were Delos Walker, Ernie Coop er, Fred Lewis and Recorder Ferd Jones. Council adjourned until June 7 which is budget hearing date. HOME TO WASHINGTN Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Stratton of White Salmon, Washington, left today, Thursday, to return home. They have been visiting here since May 29 with their son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Stratton.
