<br /> consider was carried unanimously. Then Councilman Jones , seconded by

<br /> the electrical distribution system by condemnation proceedings which resolution ,
<br /> upon roll call was carried unanimously, but with the understanding on the
<br /> part of Councilmen Christensen, Eva , and Fletcher that their affirmative
