<br />i' The Board next considered a motion made, seconded and carried, at the regular meet- j
<br />ing of the Common Council, November 23, 1953, and referred to the Board for the �required! j action. Finding this matter to be a traffic problem, the Board directed Traffic EngineeP,

<br />STREET DEPARTMENT:
<br />Street Commissioner, H. M. Tomlinson, being present, requested authorization for the;;
<br />payment of $300.00 special remuneration for the Poundmaster, from funds appropriated- Ij
<br />for the Dog Pound Assistant. In view of the fact that the Poun.dmaster performed all of
<br />the duties in connection with the Dog Pound for a period of not less than six months,if
<br />without the services of an assistant, the Board authorized the additional remuneration
<br />from the funds available for Personal Services in the 1953 appropriation for the open- :I
<br />ating of the Dog Pound. I'
<br />Some discussion was given to the dog problem, which the Commissioner described as j
<br />particularly bad in the.Beckts Lake area, where he reports dogs are running loose in
<br />packs. It was suggested the City ordinance governing ownership and control of dogs
<br />should be more effectively enforced.
