A SPOKESMAN for the City has said the proposed shops are badly needed. He said that anyone who has visited the pre- sent area can easily see that the city is definitely short of space with completely inadequate facilities for repair, maintenance and storage. Vandalism at the area is also adding to the cost of operating the cities equipment. The replacement of broken glass and the repair of other damage consumes much of the employees time. For example to replace the air let out of a large tractor tire requires three hours. Depreciation of the equipment is also stepx-- up much of it must lie stored outside and unprotected. d MAYOR FRANK BOWMAN has stated that the $54),!)(X) Ixind the issue placed voters on Tuesday will be sufficient to meet the cost of a proposed new shop area. The new area would include one building estimated to lie 70 x 120 feet and to contain: the public works superintendent's office, a mens hx'ker room, rest rooms, a parts room, a water meter repair shop and a storage area.
