Hanks, and Gouncilmen Stevenson, Dorton, Gorliss,_Co-sbey and Thompson. The: minutes of t` e Meeting of December 27t1-1, 1938, were read and approved. Cou!ncilma.n Corliss of the Street and Alley Committee reported on the bank in front o�l the Ried property on Sidney St., which had been referred to tYlis Committee at tl e last meeting. He stated t'. at the Committee had visited the property and recommended that the sandy part of the slope be riff -naffed with sacks of rocks and boulders. He also stated that he had investigated the walk in front of Nat*s Service Station at the junction of the Gig Harbor Highway and round that part of the railing along toe walk had broken down and s1.ould be repaired.

X. Peterson, had been signed, and all were declared installed in office. Upon the completion of the organization of the new Council, the Mayor in his opening remarks stated to the Council and citizens present that after much study and investigation he gad arrived at a definite conclusion that the cost of the City Government was much too high, and that it was out of line when compared with other cities in the State of the same class and population. He pointed out th _t the present millage for running the Town was 22 mills--7 mills in excess of the legal limit without a special vote of the people; and so far as he had found, the highest rate in the State. He also wtated that it was his plan to reduce: the present operating expense in a substantial amount. He pointed out that in citio s where additional Mill; had been voted, it was to pay for a City Hall or other permanent improvement, but in our own case we were getting nothing permanent or of much value for the amount of money being spent. Reference was mde by the NAyor to our present City Hall 'and library as a disgrace to the community. He expressed a hogs thht something coula be done about it. Thereupon, he presented to the Councilmen a schedule of i his appointments and recommendati.ns, which called for the elimination of the Bay Street Cleaner, the appointment of a Police Judge, and a reduction in salaries � 1 showing a monthly saving of 184.00. J. M. Peterson, Town Treasurer, voluntarily reduced his own salary 25% in the interest of the Tohn. Mayor Hanks further stated'that it was AS sincere belief that a still greater saving, should and could be effected without Impairing the efficiency of any of the functions of the City Government and called upon the Council to assist him in working out additional plans for a more economical administration of the city affairs. After the Council had examined the Mayor's proposed list of appoint- ments and salaries, Street Superintendent Brasch and dater Superintendent Norton were asked by the Mayor if tLey ;till desired to accept the appointments at a $25.00 monthly reduction in sniary. Both refused the appointment at the $125.00 per month salary schedule, and stated that they had changed heir minds since i agreeing with the Mayor to accept a reduction in salary. At ,t is point in the meet- � ing, Councilman Corliss stated t_at he desired to be excused, but first wwn;ed permission to acdress the C'ouneil and reply to the U yor*s proposed Economy Plans.. Whexcupon, he stated that since the 1938 Ludget had been made by the Old Council i and since the people had voted extra millage, it was not in his opinion proper for the present Mayor or Council to cut salaries or otherwise disturb the exis6inL set- up. He then made a .notion which was seconded by :Councilman Hill that the matter of reorganizotion and sal pry cuts be aferred until the next: regular meeting of the Council in order that an opportunity would be given to study the Mayor's 505 '. proposals. After some remarks on the motion by Councilman Cline, the Council voted in favor of the motion. Mayor Hanks announced the appointment of James Munro to the position of City,Clerk and City Attorney. The Wyor then proposed a resolution expressing the• gratitude of the Town of Port Orchard for the services rendered to the City by Mrs. Floy G. Applegate and the late Francis M. Applegate. Councilman Thompson moved the adoption of such a resolution; a second was made, and the motion carried, a -I Councilmen voting in favor thereof. The Bonds of T. M. Peterson, Town Treasurer, and James Munro, Town Clerk, were approved by the Council. A survey of the Harbor boundary lines was discussed, and Council- man Tho,,iTson moved that the Council make a resolution asking the Department of - Public lands to make such a survey, and 00 a copy of the resolution be sent to Kitsap C•ounty+s Delegation.in the State Legislature. Lotion carried with all Councilmen voting in favor thereof. Discussion was had with retard to a Golden Jubil e Celebration to be held some time during; the coming year. The motion was duly gads, seconded, and carried that the Tows picnic be named the Golden Jubilee in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Wlashington*s Admittance to the Union. A request from C. Russell Smith, engineer, for information in regard to the commending of the Mitchell Hill sidewalk was referred to the Street and Alley Committee. The subjects of proper policing -of the Town, lights for Bay Street, and the imposition of an occupation tax were discussed briefly. The Mayor requested more time to study these questions and suggested that he desired to confer with the Merchants now making a monthly contribution to.the Merchant Patrol Fund. He presented a list of 57 firms now paying $114.00 per month to the Marshall's salary. Councilmen Thompson pointed out the absurdity of a Marshall being forced to collect part of his own salary from citizens, and the difficulties experienced with such a system. The 01yor expressed a desire to have a meeting of citizens to get t eir views on these, inatters. W_ayor Hanks again asserted that theexpenses of running the Town of Port Orchard were greatly in excess of the amount required to finance othor cities in the State similar in size and nature to Port Orchard, and that it was Kis inteutio.n to run the Town of Fort Orchard for a figure that was consistent with he ability of the taxpay= rs to ,pay the same.

January 23, 1939 - The Town Council met this evening at 7:30 p.m. with Mayor C. A. Hanks and all Councilmen present. The ;minutes of the meeting of January 9th, 1939, were read and approved. The ,Iola.-. or expressed his gratitude for the fine turnout of citizens wYio had taken an interest in civic affairs any had shown their interest ' y their presence at the meeting. The Mayor expressed the hope that the citizens of the community would always shove such fine interest in the commaunity affairs and vrould turn out at every Co°--_nc-ll Meeting as they had at this meeting. He then called upon the persons jresent to! express their views relevant to the interest of the Town. Harold Meukow, Per: Talbot, Mr. Guest, Mr. eta -_ker, Mr. Tripplett, Mr. Lundberg, Mr. Neurnberger and Mr. Mahan expressed the view that they were apposed to the reduction in the salary of the Superintendent of Water, an_. some of them stated that they oel.-eved that Harkey Norton had the qualifications for that position. Harley Norton expressed the view that when he had first agreed with the Mayor o accept the position of Dater Superintendent at a salary of t125.00 a month, that he was of the opinion that the salary had been agreed upon by the Council at that figure; that he thereafter determ-ned from a member of the Council that there had been no general ,-,greement among the Council members in regard to this matter, and that he further felt that he was to be guided in these matters by the Council. In response to a question Councilman Corliss reiterated that it had been his opinion that the budget as outlined by the old Council should be followed. Harley Norton presented a pet,.tion to the Mayor purporting to be signed by 240 people asking; for his retention as Water S�Jperinterdent, and he also presented a written application for the position. Mayor Hanks then at length discussed the entire situation from the beginning to the present time and explained that the position haU been offered Harley Norton as dater Superintendent -nd Clint Hrasch as Street Superintendent and that they had agreed with him to accept, and then without further warning to him or any notice of any }rind whatsoever, or discussion, they had come to the Council meeting and reused to accept the position. i Ma•ror Hanks diaclaim d any blame for the fact that the two men were to be separated from the -�os:itions which they had held in the past, and he stated that there never had been a wage dispute of any kind �:etween these men and himself; that the matter had never been discussed by them since the original time when they had agreed to work for the salary offered. The Mayor discussed in detail the costs of operating the Town of port Orchard as compared to the costs of operat:tnj; cities of a similar size and assessed valuation throughout the state. He cited figures to show that it was costing more to operate Fort Orchard then any other city of core arable size. He read from reports figures showin,, that our Water Superintendent, Street Superintendent and i Marshall were being paid sums in excese of those paid by the majority of the towns of comparable size. His figures revealed that our salary scales in the past had compared with those of towns a great deal lar. er than the Town of Port Orchard,and in some cases, with towns nearly twice our size. The Mayor then presented to the Clerk the following list of appoint- ments together with the salaries to le paid the different appointees: LIST OF Al'P41NTM1,"tvTS ANDSALARY SCHEDULES ' OFFICIALS AND COI °_ITT LS f Tayor•........................C.

It was suggested that the petition be given to Virgil Parks. r Counciln,,an Hill suggested that a worthy project would be the placing of concrete gutters on Kitsap Street. The matter was referred to the Street & Alley Committee. A discussion was then had in regard to the possibility of improving the park facilities, and it was revealed that there are now no funds available to carry on any kind: of a project in regard to that matter. A request of Mr. Lloyd for information in re;-:ard to the old Park lots was referred to the Clerk to determine if the Council had in the past approved the sale of these lots, and the Clerk was requested to advertise these lots for saleif the Council had in the past approved the sale of them.

There was a discussion of this question 511 by all Councilmen.

A. auks, Iayor September 25, 1939 The meeting was called to order with Mayor Hanks and all Councilmen present. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved as read. The meeting opened with a discussion of the 11itchell Hill project. The . Council instructed the Clerk to write a liter to the property holders inforr.ing them that the Town expected their to pay the assessments charged .against them on" the basis of the Town' s last statement to them of 61.384 per lineal foot. 3 the petition for the Ada Street water main was presented to the Council an:`, was referred to the City 'Zn ineer to be checked. The Street & Alley Commmittee reported that they had been unable to complete ay arranq eir::nts with TAIr. Caretty for the im )rovement of the road to the polo 'field. The LID for the lighting of the downtown area was Discussed. The Mayor reported that the project was originally started last year by the Council and'the Chamber of Commerce, and that he was anxious to have the project carried tnrough if it .could be done without too great an assessr_2ent against the property holders. Ross'Watt reported that he ha« contacted various property holders in retard to th.e'proposed lighting LID and that t11nose whom he ha : contacte "! were favorable toward such a project. The Xlayor stated teat there would be a lot of otter things to be considered in such a project such as the cost of removing the poles that were now in the streets, and thi re was the question as to who should. bear that cost. Harry of the Puget Sound Power & Light Company said the expense to the company incurred by sued_ a change yaould be tremendous due to the cost of putting in an underground systeri. and connecting it with i the various users. It was reported to the Council that Paul Herdiert s horse was doing considerable darnage to the oiled street by reason of the cAlks on its si-ioes tearing up small chunks of hard oil at each step taken. Council_,an Corliss moved that Pry, Herdier 'be instructed to either have the `shoes on his horse chanr,ed or keep the same off the oiled streets. The ;Mayor stated that Harry Raney haE' informed him that he thought he could £ et waivers from the property holders i'rora Melcher Street to the City Limits on Sidney for the wicenin:` of that street. 540 ttieref or: The follovaing bills v;ere rear; and approved an:", warrants crrered drawn. �.

The minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved as read. ?Mayor Hanks opened the meeting and asked if there was anyone present who had any matter they wished to bring before the.Council. There being no response from the audien:e Geore Givens reported that he had asked for bids on an automatic switch for the water tank, but there had been no offers sub- mitted to him at this time. Mayor Hanks then brought up the question of the sidewalk on the forth side of Bay Street and stated that the condition of the present walk was such that it was impossible to repair it as the timbers supporting the same had rotted to such an extent that they would no longer hold spikes. He stated that at this time we have WPA labor available and a project could be worked out with the least amount Of expense to the individual property holder. He asked the .people who were interested in the project to bear in mind that we were still working for a newistreet in front of the Town and that with the opening of the Varrows Bridge thb State of Washington would undoubtedly be interested in finding a way to ;et around the Town of Port Orchard in order to avoid the Town traffic. Heladdeci that the City Engineer was interested in the project and was going to make a trip to Olympia this week to investigate the possibili- ties of the project being built by the State of uashington. He mentioned that regardless off whether or not the new street was put in the present side- walk on Bay Street would have to be reconstructed as it could not wait until the new street was put in. He touched upon the question of a lighting project and stated that Mr. Dingle and Rr. burke of the Puget Sound Power & Light Co. have shown to him the plans of the Phanges that would be required by the lighting project in so far as the Puget Sound Power & Li-ht Co. was concerned. He told the Council that the men repr6sentin;v the company felt that if the Puget Sound Power & Light Co. was required to put in a much larger investment in the Town of Port Orchard thatthey should be entitled to an extension of their present franchise in orde'r that they might have an opportunity to realize a return upon their investment in the Town. The Mlayor pjointed out that we must constantly keep our eyes looking forward and seek sways and means to improve our community or we would no longer continue to exist as a Town. He then called upon Niles Tower, the City Engineer, to explain the different plans 'or the construction of a new sidewalk and the relati-ve costs of the same. Ix.� Tower said that a guess as to the cost if put in with con- crete would be fto-.n 3.50 to $4.50 per foot, and that if laminated wood were S 550 used, the cost would be from 1.5 to less per running foot. He stated that a concrete walk would last forever and the most that one could expect a wood wa'_k to last would be about fifteen years. Jack Kiernan, speaking for himself and Judge Yakey, stated that he was satisfied with the laminated construction similar to that in front of the P,°ayor's building. Cars. Ainsworth said that he was intere-ted in a guarantee as to the cost of the project; that he would like to sere a more definite estimate of the price made. ,_rs. =i Ldred Cohen staLeu that she wou._d like to see the wall. constructed of lat.Unated wood. Mr. Fontaine of Fragaria _aid that he felt the walk in so-ne places was as ;o-ood as the buildings adjoining it, and that if a concrete walk were put in and a fire were to destroy the building, the entire walk would be ruined by the fire, whereas, if a wood walk were put in, the loss would be somewhat less. Elmer England stated that some of the; walk has a goud foundation under it and would not have to be replaced and that he felt a wood w«lk should be constructed. Mrs. Lindquist said that she would like to see a new walk put in if it was not too expensive. Carl Ainsworth then inquired if it was going to be necessary to reconstruct the walk in those pl.oes where it was already in good condition and he was informed that it would not be neces-;ary to do so. Dean Corliss stated that he a,reed with fir. Fontaine that it would not be wise to put in a concrete wall, that misht possibly be destroyed by fire. Council- man: Cline stated then -that he would like to see concrete posts put under the sidewalk instead of piling; that he had seen such a sidewalk in Olympia, but he did not know b,hat the cost would be as c:;mpared to tyre cost of piling. Mr. Fontaine then suggestea 'the use of creosote piling. Alan Totten, who had not been at the earlier part of the me --.tin-, was called on :nd stated teat he was in a different situation than some of the people due to the fact that he had a r_taining wall at tiie end of hi::: building and the expense of a concrete walk would be a great deal less as far as he was concerned, and he preferred to put in concrete. The Clerk then stated that he had received a letter from Mrs. Andrews and that she preferred the concrete if the cost was not too great, and that hss. Applegate, who was notable to be preset-t, had also stated her preference for a concrete walk. The Mayor then called z`or a vote of the interested citizens the question of whether or not they wanted a Local Improvement District created for the builaing of the sidewalk. There was a :general discussion and Carl Ainsworth moved that each property holder be allowed to put, in his own sidewalk according to specifications by the City and within a limited time presLribed by the City. The motion wa seconded by 1srs. Cohen and carried with all interested property holders voting in favor of the same. Councilman Corliss tAen raised the question as to who was going to pay the cost of engineexin,. After a gener♦l discussion Dean Corliss moved that the specifications for the walk would be prescribed by the Street and Alley 551 ; Committee of which;Mr. Cosbey was a member. The motion was seconded by Council- man U�hompson and carried with all Councilmen voting in favor therof. Jack Kiernan asked that he be allowed four months in which to construct the sidewalk in front of the YaYey property. Councilman Cline made a motion that the property holders be allowed four months for the project. The motion was duly seconded and carried. Mrs. Joe Kearney appeared before the Council and stated that there was a dog in their neighborhood that had become a nuisance by tearing the clothing of the children, chasIng cars and barking at all hours of day and night; that on a couple of occasionq it had bitten her children. Mr. Langer was called upon and stated that he felt the same way in regard to the dog; that it had become a nuisance in the nelghborhood. It was pointed out that the dog belonged to W. J. Hauschii.d, and the Council duly adopted a motion that 16. J. Hauschild be notified that the Council had decided the dog was a nuisance and that it would be necess:_ry for t*em to either keep the dog chained up or get rid of the same.
