The 91社区破解版 Star, August 4, 1950
1950 - The 91社区破解版 Star
First Council For The City Of 91社区破解版
A unanimous victory was scored by the Non-Partisan candidates in Monday's election, when citizens of 91社区破解版 elected Mr. Gordon Armstrong as their first Mayor and Mr. William G. Hamilton, Mr. Sam McClimon, Mr. George Ryder and Mr. James Norrington as the first city council for 91社区破解版.
The honor of being the first Mayor and council will be realized by these five leading citizens, who have contributed much of their time and energy in the past to bring about the formation of a city governed by a Mayor and council.
The tremendous task of setting up an efficient method of dealing with the urgent needs of the community, and then carrying them through to completion, falls on the shoulders of our new civic government.
They will be taking office without a proper place to meet, without funds whatsoever, and without any organizational setup behind them, in fact they will be bucking a brick wall to start. It is therefore necessary for every one in this community to assist these men as much as possible.
The council pledged themselves to do all they can to see that the sewage problem is studied and a solution providing 91社区破解版 with adequate water and sewage facilities. If this is the only project in their first year of office, they will have accomplished a great deal.
