Emergency Appropriation Ordinance
To Purchase Truck for water Dept.
I! Pursuant to direction by the City Council, City Attorney Daly submitted a proposed
I� emergency appropriation ordinance, which the City Clark read in full, as follows:
ORDINANCE 140.
AN ORDINANCE providing for the immediate appropriation of money upon the Olympic Gravit
li Pater Works Fund of the City of Port Townsend for the year 1937 for the purpose of paying
and discharging the purchase price of a "pick-up" truck for the use of the Plater Department
` of said city and declaring an emergency.
II Whereas, it appears to the City Council of the City of Port Townsend that the pick-up
truck no- used by the Slater Lepartment of this city is in such a`state and condition that i
would be unwise and financially inadvisable to further expand money thereon in it s repair,
anf that a new truck should now be purchased, and
Whereas, the condition of said truck was not apparent to the City Council of the City
of Port Townsend at the time of the adoption of the official budget for the Water Depart-
ment for the year 1937, and,
Whereas, an emergency now exists for the immediate appropriation of money from said
fund for the purchase of said truck, therefore,
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PORT TUNNS'LIH) DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That there be, and hereby is, appropriated for expenditure during the year
i 1937, the sum of Dollars (.$ ), for the purpose of providing the purchase price
for a now automob e p ek-up truck or the Plater Department of said city.
Section 2. That the City Clerk be, and he is hereby authorized to draw emergency war-
rants upon the Olympic Gravity hater 'ilorks Fund for that purpose, nojr exceeding the sum of �(
Dollars (;i; ) upon the presentation of properly qpproved vouchers. 111
i. ---Seotion 3. That this ordinance be published once in the Port 'Townsend Leader; to be in
force and take effect as provided by law.
I.
The Mayor directed that, inasmuch as bids to furnish the said truck would be opened
11 later in this session, further consideration of the ordinance would be deferred until after
the said bids had been opened and the purchase price of a truck ascertained.
!i l Resolutions.
Resolution to Hard
Surface Streets.
A Resolution calling for the improvement of certain streets in the city was submitted
to the Council and was read in full by the City Clerk, as follows:
h; RESOLUTION.
Whereas, heretofore the Board of County Cormissioners for Jefferson County adopted a
resolution providing for the improvement of certain streets of the street system of the City
of Port Townsend under Secondary Highway specifications, such improvement to carry with it
jj the application of a bituminous treatment and the re -shaping of those streets to receive the
same, and
Whereas, it now appears to the City Council of the City of Port Townsend that the said
County of Jefferson will not have sufficient funds to complete said improvement as a whole,
and,
Whereas, there will be allotted to the City of Port Townsend certain sums of money from
time to time under Chapter 187, Laws of Washington, 1937, for the purposes above set forth,
therefore,
I` Be It Resolved by the City Council of the City of Port Townsend that the County of Jef-
ferson, in its program aforesaid, improve Fir Street as contemplated from 111,11, Street to I $
Street; thence along 11U11 Street to Cherry Street and thence along Cherry Street to the main
Cate of the Fort 7lorden L!ilitary Reservation, and that the County of Jefferson be reimbursed
for the cost of such improvement from funds to be paid the City of Port Townsend under Chap-
ter rt of Chapter 187 of the Laws of the State of Washington, 1937.
It was moved by Councilman Naughton and seconded by Councilman Lewis that the said reso-
lution be adopted. Upon Roll Call vote all seven councilmen voted in the affirmative and
motion was declared carried.
The said resolution was then signed by the Mayor and atteXsted by the City Clerk.
