On the suggestion of Councillor Ken Pennington, council decided to authoribe the public works and special committees to contact the Junior Chamber of Comerce to see what plans this group might have for such a project. Councillor Pennington suggested that if the Jaycees had plans for a clean-up week, it might be well for both the town and the Jaycees to holdihe campaign jointly.
