Council also dis- cussed putting a railing along the walkway on the east side of the Municipal Building. It has been brought to Councils' attention that children are rid- ing their bicycles down this walkway, and this pre- sents the hazard of running into on-coming traffic behind the shopping area. A special meeting of Council had been called to accept the formal order approving the project and authorizing issuance of debentures for the new exten sion on the High School. It is to be expected that we shall soon see construction started on the proposed extension.
