$90,000 Released

To Repair Streets

Project Is Added To Main Program

The works board today authorized the street commissioner to use $00,000 for repair and resurfacing of secondary streets. The secondary street repair program will be co-ordinated with a $138,000 project to resurface several of the city’s main streets. The board also ordered a letter sent to the state highway department to determine if Meridian st. ‘would be widened this year. If Meridian st. is not to be widened this year, the board wants! to stop installation of modern street | lights along the thoroughfore. Approve Light Meter The board also approved instal-

lation of an electric meter at Weir| Cook Municipal airport so that

four lights installed there could “be placed in operation. The lights will be used to light up an area where

. airport officials say “thievery and

malicious damage” has been common. Luther Tex, street commissioner, said the resurfacing of secondary streets will begin as soon as the weather clears. He said his department is going to use a new type of paving material to prevent such rapid deterioration as has occurred in the past.
