Just al soon as 1t was learned that
the bond election had carried, City
Clerk #. l.. Cruikshank had unders
way the many little details connects
ed with putting over an Improvement
program such as is contemplated in
Improvement District No. 2 of Mont
pelier.
At the earliest possible moment
bonding companies were invited to
submit bids for the purchase OF the
city's paving bonds, and following
close upon this feature comes the in
vitation to contractors to submit bids
on the installation Of the pavement
Bids on the sale of the bonds will
be opened at special meeting of
the council ON the evening of May
10th, and on the following Wednes-
day evening contractors will submit
their bids. Thus, IL everything sails
along smoothly, the bids will be let
about the middle of May, and the
next move will be up to the contract
or who is successful in landing the
big Job. The district included in the
Improvement district is large enough
to attract large contractors, and a
real good figure should be the result.
