Mr. Hanks reported that the clerk contacted the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Co. and he was informed that the revenue was 15% for the Town of Port Orchard. The Mayor also brought up the subject of the hearing of the Department of Public Service on the question of the garbage collection which is to be on the 16th day of July in the city hall of Port Orchard at 10:00 o'clock A.M. It was reported to the council by Ross Watt that N=ajor Lathrop had taken over the Central School Bldg. for army use. Mayor Hanks said that the night man was getting along all right but the streets should be washed with the hose which was bought for that purpose. I Mr. Raven is helping Policeman Kluge with the street washing. It was duly motioned, seconded, and carried, that we pay Mr. Raven two dollars a night, six night a week for his services. The clerk was instructed to write to Walter Jones of the Kitsap County Humane _Society concerning the Dog and Cat contract given to Mr. Jones to be one year as written in the minutes of June 22, 1942. Foss Watt explained to the council that the town is to pay all the bills incurred under the dog and cat contract out of the 15% retained by the town. Mayor Hanks asked for a report from Ross Watt on how the suit against the Kitsap County sewer charges for the courthouse was progressing. When asked whether -or -not he wanted any help on this matter, Mr. Watt said that he would decide at the time the case comes up before the court. Ross Watt had been asked as to whether -or -not the Town of Port Orchard had the right to go into contract with the N.C. Jannsen Drilling Company without first calling for bids on the matter. His legal opinion was that there was no need for bids before go- ing into contract. George Givens reported that he had started oiling Kitsap Street on the morning of June 13th, 1942. Mayor Hanks brought up the question of salvage in the town: Mr. Cosbey said that the Salvation Army is taking up all the paper bags and rags, etc. Mr. Cline stated that the County Commissioners had told him that if anyone having any old iron, would con- veniently place it, the county trucks would pick it up. Mayor Hanks read from a ques- tionairre concerning the salvage. The council then further discussed the salvage problem stating that Mr. Leo:Haskell was appointed chairman over all the salvage operation in this county and that it was his duty to take care of it and the council need not worry about the situation. Mr. Thompson said that the town cannot set up an organization of this type because it has no facilities whatsoever to take care of the situation. People are to be referred to Glen 'Milder for salvage pick-ups. Yr. ?attison said he believes: that Prospect Street should be fixed. He said people parking on 2ro3pect Street have a hard time getting out of their parking spaces. Mr. Pattison said that he further bel.Js7ed the road should be torn up and graded. Roy Livingston wanted to know whether or not he had to remove the dirt that he had excavated in putting, in the sidewalk on Prospect Street. In his contract with the owner of the property putting in the sidewalk, it did not state that he had to re- move the dirt. The party will not pay Mr. Livingston for his work until the dirt is removed. Council suggested that Mr. Livingston get the engineers approval of the work and collect his pay. Mr. Cosbey stated that if the town has to remove the dirt, the town can charge the property owner. I - The council decided to grant the U. S. Army the use of the Central School Building and grounds with the un,erstanding that they will pay the Water and Sewer charges against the property while they use it. Mr, Cosbey stated that he had received many complaints about the blackberry vines next to Narkussen's 111?chine Shop. The clerk was instructed to write to the street superin- tendent telling hifti to inform the owners of pro_.)erty on Bay Street, east of the Blacksmith's shop; Kitsap Street, Prospect Street; and Cline Street to Dwight; the Navy View Apartments; from High Street to Hull; that they must take care of the overbearing vines and weeds at once. If they ego not care to do this, the city will, charging the property owners for their work. Roy Howe said it was no use to fix Sidney stree'; because the drains were not deep enough to take care of the rain water thereby causing the water to wash the gravel off the street. Be suggested that we buy cheap lumber and build up the drains to cause the water to stay inside. 'Ihe drains affected are from Di- vision to Sidney and from Dwight to Sidney. In his opinion, this work should be done by fall. Mr. Thompson moved tnat we make an earnest effort to get two men to make these drains. Mr. Cline seconded the motion and it was passed with all councilmen voting in its favor. Mayor Hanks then read the report of the police Dept. and commented that they were doing very well. The question of the police pants was brought up and after some discussion, Rex Thompson motioned that the present_ bill be paid ,but in the future they would furnish no more clothes for the police force. George Cline seconded the motion and the motion was passed with all councilmen voting in its favor. Mr. Cosbey suggested that the Police Department ask the council for ap- proval before going ahead and buying in the future. :Xr. Hanks said he felt that in the future the police department could have a Policeman's Ball or other outside activities to take care of such matters. The council decided to give the rationing board two weeks to vacate quarters in the city hail. They felt that the quarters were insufficient in size to take care of the amount of business carried on. George Cline made a motion to this effect, Cosbey seconded this motion and the council unanimously voted in its fa- vor. Roy LiYingston complained thattoo many people were collecting garbage and instead of putting it in the dump, were throwing it in any convenient place and that the dump is in such a condition that he made a two inch gash in one of his tires. He asked that other people be ordered to stop hauling garbage. Mr. Fattison asked the Clerk to bring in a financial statement to the next coun- cil meeting in order that the council might get a picture of how the funds are standing. Mr. Thompson moved that D. J. Talbot's bill for plumbing in the city hall rest --room be rejected until the plumbing is installed. All Councilmen voted in its favor.

Mr. Cos bey motioned that they be permitted to get the dirt from the ball park under the supervision of the Street and Alley Committee. The petition for the path from Pottery Hill to the South side of Town was up for discussion. It was decided that the Street and Alley Committee should get the thing started at once in order to have the path ready by the next school term. There was then some discussion about the everlasting garbage dump. After some discussion Ross Watt suggested that we fence the dump and close it to the public. Mr. Watt was also instructed to call up Olympia and ask what is holding up the verdict on the hearing of July 16. George Givens was instructed by the council to put a fence around the garbage dump.
