the mayor and council mem
bers. The mayor and council stress
that this intended action might
avoid a possible bond issue. At
least they are making every ef
fort to do so, they said.
Straus invites all interested
residents of the city who wish
to obtain further information to
attend the next regular council
session on Monday, December

Action by the council last
week put into effect Ordinance
No. 335. It prohibits the riding
of and regulates the parking of
bicycles on public sidewalks in
the city and provides penalties
for violations.
Reason for the new ordinance
was explained that riding of bi
cycles on the city sidewalks had
reached a point where it inter
fered with the normal pedestri
an traffic. It was stated that
parking of bicycles on the side
walks at any time, in any place,
and often blocking the sidewalk
completely created a he alth and
safety hazard. The police chief,
Bill Young, was instructed to
enforce the new ordinance.
A request to enter into a mu
tual aid agreement made by the
Talent Rural Fire Protection
District in a letter from Wayne
Van Blarcom, chief of the dis
trict, was approved by the coun
cil. Roland Washburn, who is
serving an elective four year
term on the council, informed
the mayor and council that he
would be living just 20 feet out
side the city limits. He has
opened the Gold Hill Branch
office of the Bill Colley Real
Estate Agency and will reside at
the new location because of a
joint business and residence ar
rangement. Since the city charter does
not provide an answer for this

charge would enable the city
to go ahead with work at the
disposal system that would
bring it up to state -standards,
he said.
The decision to consider a
possible sewer charge was
made at the Nov. 4 council
meeting, and it followed many
months of study on the part of
by the mayor and council. Defi- P ""S said ho-
nite action was tabled until the
legal aspects can be checked by
would investigate the matters.'
the city attorney, Bob Grant.
City officials expressed the
opinion that if legal arrange
ments can be made to retain
Washburn as a councilman, they
want to keep him because they
feel he is doing a good job.
Applications for the renewal
of liquor licenses for 1964 were
approved for John Cogswell,
owner of Cogswells Market, and
