Lnsurance ,for the village. After hearing statements from }~r. Noyes
of t~ Employers Nutual, from t.~r. Reed of his own AgaricS, ~nd from
~?.r. Koehler of the ~ank, the council, on motion by ¥ost, Winkel second-
Lng, awarded the Public Liability c,ontrs..,cts for the LiQuor ~tore and
the Village to the Mound Bank Agaric.y, and the, Workman's Compensation,
on motion hy Alwin, Winkel seconding, to the Reed agency, which
represented the Travelers Insurance Co. of Hartf.ord, Conn. in its bid.
However, ~nasmuch as the Travelers Ins. Co. required a combination
c~ontract (two policies) of Public Liability and Workman's Compensation
i,n ord.er to. make ~,Vorkman's Compensa~tion ~cceptable to it, Nr Reed
l.nterJected the ~ltuminous Casualty. Co. as insuror in lieu of the
Travellers. (By later action of members of the counciL1, not in
fprms!, meeting,~ but by mutual agreement via telephone, the from-
Travelers-to-Bituminous shift of the Reed Agency was considered an
imperfect bid that should not have been recognized at the regular
meeting. The council, therefore, r~cinded its action and ~warded
the contr~.ct for l~orl~nan's Compensation Insurance to the Employers'
~utual. )
Chairman ~lnkel of the Road Committee reported on the Bruckelmeter
corner, involving portions of Lots 31 & 32, Lynwold Park in @ proposal
of lengthening the turn and widening thestreet at this point, %he
price asked being $50.00 for the four feet in from the corner stake.
The price not being acceptable to the council, the proposal was
remanded back to the committee for further consideration by the
principals.
