Summary
At its July 8, 1985 meeting, St. James Township accepted Gillespie Oil and Transit’s $1,149 bid for the fire-station septic system subject to several protective and inspection conditions. The board also reviewed zoning fees, campground and playground work, property and licensing matters, and a proposed merger with Peaine Township.
Evidence limits
The Beacon preserves a newspaper account of minutes and proposals. It does not establish the final contract, completed septic work, permits, or a merger.
