As requested by the Council, the City Manager filed a memorandum of the cost of constructing a footbridge connecting Main Street and Jefferson Avenue in which he showed an estimate of the cost as follows: Purchase of Right -of -Way $21000 Timber Footbridge 700 Filling and Concrete Walk 300 TOTAL ESTIMATED COST ...... $3,000 It was thought the cost too high and that the $2,000 for purchase of right-of-way might be eliminated by acquiring an easement rather than buying the right -of -ray. The matter was referred back to the Manager with instructions to inquire about the easement with a reasonable tenure and at a nominal cost if it could not be obtained without cost. William Alves and Harry Lower made written request for a permit for the purpose of hold- ing amateur boxing bouts at the Foresters Hall. There seemed to be no objection if the gentlemen would provide the cost of a special officer, when necessary, and also pay any local license fees in addition to a state license, and it was so ordered. On motion of Councilman Fletcher, seconded by Councilman Christensen, permits for restaurant licenses were granted to the following: June Bunyard Bob's Cafe Welcome Inn Joe Arce Sodini's Tavern Charley's Place Sequoia Creamery Garafoli's The Waffle Inn Dan's Place Europa Cafe Kung Yiet Cafe L.
