COUNCIL STUDIES , ROUTINE PROBLEMS Owners of cemetery lots which were staked out prior to the time the city took over management of the burial grounds have raised a question in regards to the city's right to assess a $25 fee for opening open-ing and closing a grave. Council members voted Wednesday night to charge the $25 fee for each new grave regardless of when the lot was staked out. City payroll of $610, for the last half of August, was approved approv-ed for payment. Councilmen ordered the city jail cleaned thoroughly once a week. Condition of the road in Mark-ham Mark-ham was discussed. Councilmen decided it should be thoroughly cleared of all scrap and waste materials.
