ARCHITECTS BIDS Action on bids received from requests for Architects for the proposed fire station on the Westside was deferred until next meeting. PARKING METER HOODS At this time the report from the Police Department dated August 13, 1951 regarding the use of paper sack hoods over parking meters by construction men and the like, was read to the Board. Discussion was held at which time Mr. Jack Young stated that he felt that an annual license, or the issuance of a license plate to show the fee had been paid for the use of parking over the allotted time by a contractor, would less complicate matters. Mr. Young suggested we contact such cities as Salt Lake City, Ogden, Utah, and Idaho Falls where such ordinances are in effect to see how they work out this problem. Commissioner Peccole moved the foregoing recommendation of the Police Department in regard to meter hoods be accepted and put into operation. Motion seconded by Commissioner Bunker and carried by the following vote: Commissioners Bunker, Jarrett, Peccole and His Honor Mayor Pro Tem Whipple voting aye; noes, none. Absent: Mayor Baker.
