a concrete block bulwark on tne
exposed side of the reservoir
with dirt fill in order to provide
insulation for the reservoir. Some
cracks have developed because
of the expansion and contrac
tion from heat and cold, he said.
The superintendent said that
water was within feet of
the top of the reservoir Satur
day despite the demands of the
hot weather.
At the same time the council
embarked on a discussion of fur
nishing water to outlying areas
for pasture irrigation. It seem
ed to be the consensus that the
city should no longer furnish
water for this purpose.
It was pointed out that in
the summer months it is diffi
cult to keep up with domestic
demands. Groshens said that an
application has been received to
run a 1-inch line to supply wa
ter for pasture irrigation.
He pointed out, however, that
the rate structure is set up in
such a manner that a person
can irrigate a pasture cheaper
than a home owner can obtain
water for domestic use.
Groshens said that it had
been necessary to limit water
ing the grounds at the high
school to night irrigation, and
he said the lawn there is "be
ginning to suffer.''
Mayor V. C. Rosewall said he
thought the council should in
vestigate the possibility of dig
ging another well at some time
in the future. Groshens said that
the present main from the wells
is handling all the water it can
take. However, an investigation
will be made into the costs of
pumping and into the rate

had suggested that Main street
he converted to parallel park
ing. The suggestion, however,
was not seriously discussed at
the Monday meeting.
Chief Sworn In
Police Chief Glen Kolkhorst,
formerly of Coos Bay. was pros
ent at his first meeting, and ho
was sworn in to office by At
torney Mahonev. Bert Corbin, re
cently hired as a police officer,
also took the oath of office.
Requests were presented for
two new street lights, one to
be located near the Bud Peck
residence on East Linden Way
and another to be near the
Ceglia Auto Wrecking Yard on
Riverside. After some discussion,
a motion was passed that the
lights be installed.
Ceglia Makes Plea
John Ceglia, owner oi tne
wrecking yard, was present at
the meeting and asked to ad
dress the council. He made a
plea for all property owners to
"clean up the city" and urged
the council to spur such a move.
Ceglia said that he realized the
wrecking yard had been target
of some complaints in the past
but said that he had been
working to make it "look nice."
He said that there would be
a "lot of wrecked cars that
would be scattered around the
citv." if he didn't pick them up
and haul them to the yard.
Ceglia said that if the city
ever feels that he is not doing
right at his yard or has any
complaint about it, the city of
ficials should come to him and
tell him so.
Zone Fee Set
The council passed a motion
setting fees for applicants for
variances, conditional uses, or
amendments to the zoning or-!
dinance. The fee is set at $5 ,
plus costs.
The zoning ordinance had
provided for such a fee but the
amount had never been set. i
At the same time, the coun-
cil asked that Emile Groshens
and John Lane be asked to ap
ply for variances in order that
their building permits might be
acted upon. j
When their applications were :
first received, the council could '
not grant them because of some
provisions in the ordinance.
Subsequently, howe v e r, the
council passed an amendment to
the ordinance which gives it
discretionary powers in granting
variances. Since this amend- j
ment is now passed, the coun- I
cil asked for the application for!
the variances in order that it j
may act on the building appli-
cations.
The L". S. Forest Service re- ;
quested permission to extend a '
sidewalk north from the Gil- j
nam anu cisoee uuuuing w
feet, along Main street, taper
ing down from 12 feet to 6 feet.
Attorney Mahoney pointed
out that an ordinance now on
record requires 12 ft. walks to
a point where August street
would Intersect with Main, if
August extended through the
block.
It was determined that it w'M
bo necessary to amend the or
dinance to make it possible for
the walk to bo built, but the
oouncilmen expressed favor for
the amendment hovauso they
believe a 6 ft. sidewalk will
bo adequate for the area to be
served.
The city attorney was auth
orized to draw up an amend
ment on the matter
Garnishment Policy Set
Policy of giving the city su
perintendent and police chief
power to dismiss employees
whose wages have boon tar
nished, when the garnishments '
nave been reduced to judge
ments was set by the council.
Before the dismissal is effect
ive, however, the superintend
ent or chief must chock the stat
us of the garnishment with the
city attorney to see that it is
under execution and therefore
represents a valid case of non.
payment.
Permission was given officials
of the Sidewalk Bazaar to rope
off a block of Willow Street be
tween Chase and Main for a
program Saturday morning. Per
mission was also given to hood
parking meters for two days
Friday and Saturday.
Mrs. George reported that 11
applications have been received
for police chief. The council re
quested that she answer each
application and inform the
writer that the position is fill
ed. Contract with Marion Green
to repair parking meters for the
city at $50 per month an in
crease from S3 per month, was
approved.
Building permit for G. E. Ni
kander. SoOO, to build porch and
