Ordinance Revised
Upon the suggestion OF the odi-
nance revision committee and Its
attorney, Alfred Finkelstein many
alterations In the ordinances were
made by the board of aldermen last
night. It's purpose was to eradicate
all obsolete clauses and make the
ordinances timely.
The ordinance for the removal OF
garbage which was originally placed
with the board of health In the year
Of 1897 was amended to give the
board of works complete jurisdiction,
as 1t has had for the past several
years. The ordinance on infectious
diseases was changed to list the
various diseases over which the
health department could make reg
ulations. The ordinance for trees,
originally gave the board Of works
/ jurisdiction. Now the park board
maintains the power. The ordinance
for parks was changed to give the
park board power TO make rules con-
corning playing on the golf course,
and ruling fine Of $25 for violators.
The ordinance for lighting brush
fires was changed to necessitate a
permit from the fire marshal and
giving the marshal power to permit
or deny permits, with a fine of $40
for violation.
The new park ordinance was
adopted denying public bathing ex-
cept where permitted by the park
board, and prohibiting riding on
paths In the parks unless SO desig-
mated by the park board.
Who's Who!
The board also voided the existing
ordinance concerning trafflc. be-
cause under g. recent state law the
police board, not the board OF alder
men, Is the traffic authority In any
city or town, and the police board
has already made its own trafac
rules.
