COUNCIL GETS
AIRPORT PLAN
OFF TO START
(Continued From Page One)
the city nd in the suburban
area.
The Dlan proposed by the
council was to obtain gravel
prison labor and equipment
from the county on a cost basis,
but Commissioner Bcnner ad
vised the meeting that the coun
ty court was not sure of its
legal right to allow such ac
tion In view of a state law for
bidding expenditure of county
fundi on any but county roads.
A ruling is being sought at the
present time on a plan used by
the county for some time, sim
ilar to the city's proposal.
"Black Rain" Studied
A committee appointed by
Mayor Houston will meet with
the court to seek further de
velopment of the plan.
A committee consisting of the
council, the mayor and Fire
Chief Keith Ambrose will meet
with operators or engineers of
various plants in Klamath Falls
to study the soot, or "black
rain" problem, acting on a sug
. gestion of the planning commis
Ion.
Juvenile Officer David Bridge
appeared before the council to
ask enforcement of a curfew
law for Klamath Falls. The
. present law requires all minors
under 16 years of age to remain
off the streets after 9 p. m., but
it was the feeling of the council
that time should be changed to
10 p. m. to allow for legitimate
entertainment at theatres, skat
ing rinks and the like. A re
port was asked for the next
council meeting.
Two other problems were as
signed to committees for closing
action. Petition signers and in
terested persons were ordered
invited to a meeting to discuss
improvement of the center strip
. on Pacific Terrace, and a study
was ordered to see if an agree
i ment could be inserted in the
Kennel club franchise to handle
the job of disposing of dead
animals.
Besides accepting reports of
the city treasurer and city meat
' and dairy inspector, the council
approved the bid of Winnie
Hoak for providing meals for
city prisoners, but rejected a
California Oregon Power com
pany bill for changing wiring
for the fire alarm system. Derid
ing reconciliation of the $580
bill and the $250 estimate given
ine city previously.
