Honorable Mayor and Council
Wyandotte, Michigan
Gentlemen:
l believe the time has come for
the City of Wyandotte to seriously
consider the construction of a NUM-
cipal swimming pool. 1 personally
know of a large number OF our cit
liens who are forced to travel many
miles, either to Lake Erie or to the
Dearborn Pool for bathing purposes,
and am sure my fellow councilmen
know of many more.
From my own investigation, I
have found that by charging only
a nominal sum for admission, the
City Of Dearborn is not only able to
take care of all operating expenses,
but make substantial payment on
the capital investment. In their
case this investment amounted to
approximately $2OO,OO0OO, but they
inform me it could have been done
for 100000 less if more foresight
had been used in the construction
of the pool
AS an indication that a swimming
pool is a sound investment for a
municipality. would point out that
investment houses are eager to fin
ance swimming pools 1907 on a
revenue bond basis, and while I
would not recommend this method
of financing, it is worthy of con-
sheraton.
! would like to recommend to
your honorable body that the Mayor
appoint a ways and means commit
tee to fully investigate the posi-
bilities of municipal swimming
pool for Wyandotte, and report back
to this body. and that the matter
be placed before the voters at the
next election for their approval or
rejection.
Respectfully yours,
James H. Mason,
Councilman
Referred to Council.
To the Honorable
The Mayor and Council
City Of Wyandotte
Gentlemen:
1 wish to call TO your attention a
motion offered and unanimously
adopted at the meeting of the
Workmen'S Compensation Board Of
the City of Wyandotte, held under
date of August 2, l945, which is as
follows:
MOTION by Mr.. Liddle, sup
ported by Mr.. Harrington, that
as of this date any employee
following leave of absence OF
thirty days, or more, must sub
nit to a physical examination;
and if found below Class b,
he will not be re-employed.
Some difficulty has been ex-
perienced in connection with en-
ployees upon their return to their
employment after an absence of
thirty days, or over, and it is the
opinion of the board that this mo-
ton will clarity the situation.
Very truly yours.

ton Board,
City of Wyandotte
