lage. Mr. Locher stated that as far as he could determine we were not prohibited from

were no particular drainage problems involved; he would recommend no ditches, but use
the additive.

in the 1968 budgeted road improvement plan after studies on the roads already completed
to see which coating was prefered. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried. It was mentioned
that several other short pieces of village road which are far apart should also be given
preference in 1968, but we can not bind future Councils. However, the road study com-
mittee should be informed of this.

okay. Mr. Pete Scherer asked about no guard rails on several approaches to 35E. Mr.
