This was a decision of the city council last Thursday night after hearing a report from Councilman Olof Zundel anent the citys efforts to revise its license fee schedule. Zundel told his fellow officials that it was highly impractical to charge on a square foot basis. There are just too many variations with businesses ranging from a cold storage company to beauty talons, he said. And this apparently dashed cold water on the councils plan to create a new fee structure on square feet alone. Brigham City is looking around for an estimated $70,00 to pour down the drain. This is the amount which City Engineer Francis Todd has placed on installation of a storm drain system in northeast Brigham City. And when he gave this estimate at a city council meeting last Thursday night, city officials gulped hard but ordered a call for bids on the project "because we need it now. The system will serve the area from Poplar drive and Third North to Seventh North and Fifth East. These were described as the critical points together with Ninth East and Third South where homes were described as set low. It was Mayor Ruel M. Eskelsen who recommended that Todd be authorized to call for bids since he had preliminary plans and specifications which were prepared more than a year ago. And it was Eskelsen who was the first to wonder out loud where the city would obtain funds to pay the cost. Well have to figure out the finances later, he said.
