Bidders Must Specify Use
of Building Voters Must
Approve Any Plan Accepted
Bids for the sale of the Old City
Hall building will be sought by the
Cleveland Board of Commissioners
as the first step in a solution to
the problem of what to do with
that structure
The Commission authorized J D
Cheek city manager to advertise
for the bids at its meeting Monday
night A copy of the notice appears
in this week's American
Bids will be received at the of-
fice of the city clerk up to 7:30
pm Monday night April 1 Cheek
said The bid must contain a state
ment as to the use to which the
building and lots will be put and
an agreement that the present
building would be given a major
overhaul before its occupancy by
any tenant
The top story of the structure
has been condemned by the state
fire marshal's office At present
the ground floor of the building
Is used as the polling place in
Ward 2 and except for this and
perhaps some other occasional
purpose It is unused
The charter of the city prohibits
the sale or lease of the building
without the approval of the voters
By taking bids the Board of
Commissioners could determine
the best proposition and then sub-
mit that proposal to the people
Cheek said for their approval or
disapproval It no suitable bids
are received then no election
would be required
Cheek pointed out that the Board
members expressed the opinion
that some disposition will have to
be made of the building before the
structure completely disintegrates-
Some consideration was given by
the Board to the possibility of
overhauling the ancient building
and putting it to some use
This would mean removal of the
top story and converting the hall
from a two-story to a one-story
building They felt however that
It should first be advertised for
bids to determine if a private indi-
vidual or company would be inter-
ested in improving the location by
establishing some business apart-
ment building or other type of
structure
The land owned by the city and
on which the building is located is
30 feet wide east and west and
100 feet long north and south
If no practical bids are made for
the land and building then the
commission members would not
call an election and would attempt
to find some other answer to the
problem

Candidate for Board Post
2 Levy Questions on Ballot
Patrons of the Cleveland school

them to go to the polls and cast
their vote in favor of the two levy
questions which will appear on the

Edd Perry according to Young
Needing the approval of the pa-
trons is a 5-mill levy for general
fund purposes Young said and a
5-mill building fund levy The su-
perintendent pointed out that the
general fund levy is required if
Cleveland is to continue to have a
first-class school
The estimated school budget for
the coming year published last
week calls for $180500 to operate
the school program Estimated in-
come including a small surplus
from this year and the funds rais-
ed by a 20-mill levy which the
school board is authorized by law
to assess without the necessity of
an election will lack slightly more
than $12000 raising t h e needed
total
For this reason the 5-mill gen-
eral fund levy is a definite neces-
sity Young said
The 5-mill building fund levy is
for the purpose of raising funds for
future new building remodelling
or repairing of present buildings
and the purchase of furniture

Improvements For
Highway 99 Wait
on Army Engineers
City Commission members Mon-
day night heard J D Cheek re-
port on progress on improvements
to Highway 99 from Wichita street
north to the city limits
Cheek said that he had been ad-
vised that this work would not be
programmed until the Army En-
gineers definitely stated their poslp
tion on the protection of the high-
way from high water stages of the
keystone reservoir
The Engineers are to submit re-
ports by the end of March in order
that the improvement program
will not be delayed the city mtume
ger said
If the area is protected from
high water then the roadway will
not be changed but the improve-
ments will be made
If no protection is provided the
highway can not be Improved be-
cause the level of the road will
have to be raised Such a move
would require waiting until the
property owners are bought out
and the property removed Cheek
pointed out
If the highway were improved
and the road level raised the pre-
sent property owners would have
no access to the road
