Members <br /> <br />present were: Vice-Mayor Francis T. West; Harry L. Boaz; and William D. <br /> <br />Hobson (Mayor Renick and Councilman Hartford both being out of town). <br /> <br />City Manager Noland informed Council that delivery of two 54-passenger <br /> <br />school busses, at a total cost of $13,032.74, can be made in immediate <br /> <br />future if order is placed therefor forthwith and that, with temporary <br /> <br />usage of certain other available busses, the estimated need for student <br /> <br />transportation the forthcoming school year can be met or will provide <br /> <br />time for additional study more accurately to ascertain future needs. City <br /> <br />Manager Noland, in recommending the placing of an order for the two new busses, <br /> <br />also recommended that the question of financing the cost of the new busses <br /> <br />be continued, pending determination by the Federal Government as to whether <br /> <br />reserve funds held by City Transit Company, Inc., can be used for this <br /> <br />purpose. Upon motion, duly seconded and unanimously carried, Council accepted <br /> <br />the Manager's recommendations and authorized the placing of an order for two <br /> <br />new 54-passenger busses. <br /> <br />At the request of Mr. G. C. Salmons, petitioner, Council rescheduled to its <br /> <br />forthcoming September 8th meeting the duly-advertised public hearing on <br /> <br />petitioner's requested rezoning of his property--referred to in Council's <br /> <br />July 28th minutes--and the application for a special-use permit to allow <br /> <br />petitioner to develop said property as Mobile Home Court. <br /> <br />Council was adjourned. <br /> <br /> <br />..... <br /> <br />Clerk of Council <br />
