Moore park was cited as such an instance where the city paid $1 per year for the water. The councilman also asked that appreciation be expressed to R. C. Dale, realtor, for his ef forts in assisting the committee. .Actual purchase of the prop erty will not be made until all parties are contacted and title insurance is obtained. : The matter of the county road which divides the property, was discussed and Councilman A. H. Bussman was definite in de nouncing the continued use of a county road through the ceme tery. He further stated that he felt a cemetery should be a place apart, - that it should be sur rounded by a fence and gates, and that no traffic be allowed to go through the property as would, if the road were used by Kesterson mill employes. Upon -this statement by Buss man, the council 'entered into discussion, 'weighing the merits of the water rights as compared to a county road, and it was fi nally decided that the county court would be asked to make arrangeents to reestablish the old Whiteline ranch road when the time came that this step woula be necessary. Members of the cemetery com mittee observed that it would be a wise policy to let the county re tain the road through the proper ty as snow would then be re moved during the winter months, and pointed out that the city has no facilities for such snow removal. A satisfactory road program will be worked out before the purchase is completed, Mayor Houston stated.. Members of . the cemetery committee were commended for their excellent work by the may or, and asked to continue serv ing on' a board with staggering terms much as the park board functions, but directly under city- jurisdiction. .
