At least two dozen property owners living in the Margrace area were present for a public hearing at Mon- day night’s city board meeting. Before the public hearing was called, Mayor John Moss apologized to the group for their inconvenience and said that the property owners were billed incorrect- ly and charged by the city “for paving the full extent of the street on which they reside instead of curb and gutter.” He said the errors were discovered Friday and the paving work started Mon- day. “During the period of advertising for public hear- ing two city employees were seriously ill and in passing of materials the errors occur- red. He said the city has taken steps to correct the er- rors in billing. City Attorney George Thomasson said that a public hearing at Monday night's meeting on the matter would be improper unless property owners had the correct notification of costs of the assessments for curb and gutter. Prior to rescinding the call for public hearing to consider confirming assessment roll and levying assessments for improvements on Somerset Drive from Phifer to Princeton Street, the board confirmed assessment roll and levying assessments for improvements on May Street BIBLE SCHOOL Vacation Bible School will be held July 15-19 from 6-8 p.m. each evening at the First Church, of .the Nazarene, 407 South Cherokee Street. from Grace to Church Street.
