The Manager also read a requisition he had recently made to the Federal Government for
$1.735.88 to aid in operating the Nursery School for the months of January, February and March. 1945.
Request for Use of Armory
The City Manager stated that Keith Sharp had requested use of the Armory Drill Hall for a
public dance to be held January 12. 1945. The Commission thought that the charge for the use of the
hall should be $100.00 per day if it is to be used for commercia! purposes or for personal gain.
Trucking Flamablo Liquids
The matter of trucking flamable liquids through the city was discussed. Suggestions were
made relative to prohibiting the parking of such trucks on Main Street and the length of time that they
should be permitted to stop for servicing or other purposes between Fifth and Seventh Avenues on Main
Street. The Commission decided to postpone the passage of a controlling ordinance until further informa-
tion regarding the advisability of re-routing this class of transportation through the city. or prohibiting
the parking of such vehicles on any street or streets within the city would be available. Mr. Aitken
explained that he was gathering information that would be of use in the preparation of such an ordinance
if and when the Commission decided on the details to be incorporated in the measure.
Offer to purchase old fire escape
An offer of Mr. Fred Williams to purchase the old fire eSCape on the north side of the ci~
hall was considered and it was decided that it would probably be unwise to dispose of this equipment
as it might be useful in removing prisoners from jail cells on the second floor or in clearing the
court room in case of fire.
Adjournment
There being no further business to come before the meeting. on motion by Healy, seconded by
Busch the meeting adjourned.
