Taxpayers Greet with Favor
Action Taken by Council
on Crushed Rock Surfacing
Economy of Plan Shown in
Saving of Maintenance;
Improvement Must Come

Taxpayers OF Grangeville who are
interested in municipal improvements
are greeting with favor action taken
by the city council last week, in cal
ling special bond election for July
"a, to vote on issuing $4,000 bonds
for surfacing with crushed rock
twenty-fOur blocks of Grangeville's
streets. Included in the project is
the entire business section of the city.
Little opposition is heard to the
movement, and when it is clearly
shown that maintenance money now
expended on dragging and otherwise
working the dirt streets win be saw
ed by the improvement, and in the
time the bond issue runs, a period of
twenty years, the saving in mainten-
ance will be sufficient to pay all the
interest and retire the bonds, it Is be-
lieved that what little opposition ex-
lists to the project will have been eli
minated.
1t is the councils plan, when the
bond issue of $4,000 is voted to can
Gel $1,000 of street improvement
bonds, voted three years ago for paw
ing street intersections, but nevkr
sold. By voting the new issue, il is
pointed out, the amount of authoriz-
ed bonded Indebtedness of the city
will be increased only $4,000. an in
significant amount for a municipal
ity the size of Grangeville.
The council. realizing that the
streets must be permanently improv-
ed, has adopted the program of sur
facing with crushed rock as the most
economical method available, in or
der to eliminate mud holes that i'm
pede traffic a great part of the year.
