and considered at a later date.
A suggestion was made by Councilman Anderson to have the City maintain
graveled {pumice covered) walkways off the pavement along streets where
there are no sidewalks, especially in the original townsite, so that the young
people walking to school can keep off the traveled area of the streets,. It was
felt that this should be done, and Councilman Anderson was assigned to check on
the cost.
Mayor Turnbow suggested getting flashing lights for school zo.nes; no action
was taken.
