Stanford Marvel Spoke
At Lions Club Dinner

Stanford Marvel, City Manager,
presented to the Milford Lions at
their regular bi-mOnthly dinner
meeting, a we'll formulated review
of the accomplishments of the city
in the past year.
A much needed and now COM
pleted project was a new well and
we'll house for machinery, etc. The
City has issued 73 building permits
during 1853 which represents
100 growth.
The problem of assessment has
been tackled and a formula of cost
of construction is taken into con-
sideratiOn whether improvements
are old or new.
Among the many improvements
and desired changes that the City
of Milford has made, he brought
out the fact that the Council de-
serves and should have much credit
for the long hours they have devOt-
ed to the study necessary to make
these Improvements possible. and
for their untiring efforts without
pay.
AS one of Milford's leading serv-
ice organizations, the Milford Lions
were extremely happy that they had
the opportunity to hear Mr.. Marvel.
A progressive organization as the
Lions desires to be currently adj
vised by responsible city officials
such as Mr. Marvel. so they, too,
can offer their aid and help back
worthwhile projects.
The meeting was held at the
Windsor Hotel and Mr.. William
Haight, First Vice President, pre-
sided over the meeting.
