Council Approves
Alley Paying Over
Minority Protest
The Medford city council last
night backed up a two to one ma
jority of property owners in the
area involved by voting to pave
an alley running between Da
kota avenue and 14th street from
Newtown to King streets.
The council's 5 to 1 vote for
paving overrode strong written
and verbal protests of three prop
erty owners who stated the cost
involved was too high for the
benefit derived. They also point
ed out that because of the "good
condition" of their end of the
alley, paving would not help
them.
Councilman Elmer Chllders
voted no and Councilmen John
Snider and Stanley Jones Jr.,
were absent.
The council also approved a
two-year franchise for Southern
Pacific railroad switching and
siding tracks on Evergreen, 10th,
11th and 12th streets. Southern
Pacific had requested a 10-year
franchise extension.
Councilman Dwight Houghton,
speaking for the airport com
mittee, told the council that the
Civil Aeronautics administration
has indicated it desires to renew
a lease on propery now being
used by the CAA at the munici
pal airport. The council author
ized preparation of a letter of
acknowledgement for the signa
ture of Mayor D. L. Flynn.
The appointment of Ruth
Holmes Boyd as deputy city
treasurer was approved by the
council.
