<br />decided to buy a smaller truck. Mr. Gene Evans, Executive Secretary of the Civic Planning
<br />Association, indicated that this was being appropriated for the balance of 1976, and he wondered
<br />if this was going to be an annual cost. Mr. Rollin Farrand, Director of the Department of Publi<

<br />owners. Mr. Farrand indicated that the Mayor asked the City Attorney's office to prosecute viol
<br />and assess effected property owners, and they have been making some charges and receiving some
