He is on his Kansas, to The City Commission met in regular session Wed., March 3, with Mayor Madsen and the entire council Rozzelle, Allred, Jef.eries, Cole and Wilcken present. First to be considered was the controversial question of city licenses, For the past two months members of the Duchesne council have been investigating the licenses in other cities. (The one that appealed to the commission was a levy on all gross sales. This method will be further investigated. They also learned that of the cities in the Unitah Basin, that Duchesne City license fees were the lowest and decided to eliminate the last paragraph of 'Section 21, and proceed to collect the licenses now delinquent. Next on the agenda was the curb and gutter. This was turned over to the streeJt committee, of which Irvin Cole is chairman, and authorized to proceed imto contact property mediately owners on the three blocks on Main street relative to their disposition as to the payments on installing curb and gutter. To date, the commission stated, no bids had been received on the construction work at the airport on Blue Bench, due to the fact that the specifications were not clarified sufficiently to give the bidder an understanding to the amount of work expected in the contract. The matter was referred back to the committee in charge to get in touch with the proper authorities in having a revised contract set up that will meet 'the approval of bidders. Mr. Rozzelle was authorized to draft an ordinance covering the disposal of garbage of Duchesne City, which will include, not only the business section, but also the residential section of the city. Dr. L. D. Hamilton was appointed city health physician. In the very near future the Mayor and Commission will investigate the culinary and irrigation water in the city. Every effort will be made to secure more culinary 'water and a more equal distribution of the irrigation water and it was definitely understood that a system will be set up that every one using irrigation water would have to pay for the same before the water would be turned into their canal system. . It was also decided that in order for the Marshal to successfully cope with certain traffic law violations he would need a car and a committee was authorized to secure a suitable car to be used by him in law artfl enforcement. An extensive program was set of Dubeautification up for chesne City. The Duchesne City Council seeks the assistance, good will and cooperation of every citizen to carry out all projects for the betterment of 'the community.
