block 11 and 12.
Petitions Heard
Petitions for sewers on Mt.
Pitt avenue between Peach and
Hamilton streets and Winchester

ilton and for curbs and gutters
on Summit avenue between

were referred to committees.
The ordinance on preventing
trucks to use 12th, Franquette
and Mayette streets and Spencer
avenue as a turn-around was ta
bled, and the council took no
action on meat inspection last
night.
In other moves the council
awarded a contract to Rogue
Valley Drilling company to drill
a well at the sewage disposal
plant, adopted the 1949 uniform
building code of the Pacific
Coast Building conference, took
over ownership from the civil
aeronautics administration of the
airport tetrahedron and turned
"thumbs down" on a veterans
organization proposition to sell
poppies in bunches to business

ment of a seven-man city plan
ning commission, discussion of

and soot control ordinances, and
a city budget committee report

land city council last night.
The planning commission,
named by Mayor Thomas Wil
liams to replace the men who re
signed en masse last year, in
clude Morton Newton, Jack
Reed, G. A. Sullivan, Owen
Gragg, Jack Piatt, Bernard Pet
erson and the Rev. Rovert Mc
Ilvenna. To Add Commercial Rates
In action on the proposed
water rate increase, the council
approved adding commercial
rates to residential and agricul
tural rates in the proposed sched
ule of increases, and will con
sider an ordinance covering the
rales at the next meting.
A resolution presented to the
council by the city attorney
would amend the city charter to
permit sale of timber on the Ash
land watershed to the forest ser
vice. Action lo place the resolu
tion on the May primary election
ballot will be taken at the next
meeting.
A comprehensive 10-polnt re
port, advocating long-range bud
get planning, was presented by
the city's interim biiduet coul
ter E. Coller, Ellcnsburg, Wash.,
and Mr. and Mrs. V. K. Wolga

mittee. It Indicated lhat the bud
get proposed is 10 per cent above
the constitutional six per cent
limitation, and that additional
requests from city departments
would increase it even further.
Work on the budget will be com
pleted by May 1. it is hoped by
city officials, in time to be voted
on in the election May 10,
To Control Soot
The city attorney was authoriz
ed to draw an ordinance requir
ing sawmills in the city limits to
abate smoke, soot and sawdust
from their burners. The ordin
ance will be presented to the
council for adoption.
The council authorized J. B.
Austin, city recorder; Harry
Skerry Jr., city attorney, and
Bert Day, street superintendent,
to continue with plans for a city
equipment pool for city vehicles
and equipment. Items would be
charged to city departments on
an hourly basis.
To Pay For Buijding
No action was taken on the
proposed lease of the city golf
course pending word from the
potential lessees. Austin asked,
and was granted, authority to
pay the balance duu on a build
ing which was at fir.st intended
for use as a new fire station.
Near the conclusion of the
meeting Councilman Fred Homes
moved that the city's electric
rates be changed to conform with
those charged by the California
Oregon Power company. The
mayor broke a lie with a nega
tive vote. Austin proposed that
Copco bo charged a two per cent
franchise tax for power sold in
the Bellvlcw section of the city.
Appraisal of the Copco hold
ings in the area is under way
wilh the possibility that the city
may purchase them from the
company.
