Council Passes Appropriations
from General Fund for
$4,000.

Two appropriations from the gen.
eral fund to the board of works and

and the second for $4,000 were
adopted by the council last night.
An ordinance appropriating $1,000
from the general fund TO the public
miscellaneous fund of the board Of
safety was also introduced by
Councilman Ralph Murray Hutchin-
son. This was referred 10 the COM
mittee of the whole.
Adoption of these two ordinances
and the introduction OF a third is a
part Of the underwriting OF the for
mer administration. and are in a
nature Of a deficiency character.
The former administration did not
pr divide sufficient funds for this year
with which to run the various de-
partments of the city.
Split Appropriation.
The board of works $4,000 ap-
preparation is split into $4,000 for
the engineering department, $4,000

ance designed to make the building
code more workable, which provides
that any individual or corporation
maintaining a garage in the city
housing three cars or more must
obtain a permit from the city build
ing commissioner and fire chief be-
fore the place may be operated
This provision is designed 20 prevent
garage men from setting up in bust
ness in their back yards or in resi-
dence districts and thus destroying
the purely residence character Of a
community.
All ordinances were adopted by
unanimous vote.
