The City Council met in special
session last night. Another ordi-
nance was adopted in regard to
requiring the owners of real es-
tate to keep the sidewalks abutting
their holdings free from grass and
weeds. The ordinance adopted
requires the property owners to
cut the grass and weeds not only
from that part of the walk next to
their fences, but on the ditch
banks as we'll. In other words it
requires the owners to keep the
entire sidewalk as far as it abuts
their properties free from grass
and weeds. A fine is provided for
a violation of the ordinance, and
the town is determined to enforce
it strictly.
