These busses will deposit customers at Boynton eating places after picking themup at the new waterway. Commissioner Woelbright moved ~ seconded a motion to give this permission. A toter from Joe Hatless, local realtor, asked for information on the proposed improvement of the Federal Highway from Lantana to Boca Raton. Commissioner Neil McMillian fro~ Delray appeared and gave more detailed information on the progress of this project. Commissioner Woolbright suggested a letter to Mr. Harness thanking him for his interest and explaining Mayor Purinton "will be able to give him very definite information, shortly". Shalloway Cleaners oresented, through City Clerk Williams, an offerto number all houses in Colored Town, to facilitate that company's deliveries. The consensus on this was this numbering must be done after reference to city maps so allowance will be made for future building, etc. Mayor Purinton explained maps are prohibitive to buy, so new ones must wait for more imperative needs. Ail present agreed one most pressing need is maintenance of our roads and suggested a letter to City Attorney ~Griffith on legality of allocating millage for roads. Police Chief Carver suggested the city get its own grader and roller and might get aid from the county. C.W. Nelson who is building three houses across the track asked for water on his property. Mayor Purinton said, since Nelson is entitled to it, the cost etc., must be investi~ted directly.
