County for construction of the hospital and in 1960 the City Had purchased the remainder
which had the district headquarters building on it and was now being used by the City
Engineer, but both deeds had included the six foot strip. Alderman Perry then introduced
a resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City the
