8 CITY COUNCIL HOLDS SPECIA MEETING 7:30 Proposed Gold Creek| Bridge Location to Be |3 ; : \ Discussed at Session For the purpose of getting the public’s opinion as to the location for the proposed new Gold Creek Bridge, on Calhoun Road, there will be an open meeting of the Juneau City Council this evening at 7:30 o'clock, it has been- an- nounced by Mayor I. Goldstein. Two weeks ago, the city council decided that because of the dif- ference in cost, the present bridge site would be preferable to one about 100 feet downstredm, as the Jatter would entail a cost greater | than that requested in -the city application for PWA grant and| loan for public improvements, out of which fund, the bridge is to be constructed. At the meeting last Friday, a pe- l( tition was presented to the Coun- | cil by a number of property own- ers, setting forth the desirability | of having the site of the bridge | approximately 100 feet downstream. | It was then decided by the Coun- cil to have an open meeting at | which the subject could be dis- | cussed. The difference in cost of| the two sites is estimated at ap- | proximately $9,000.
