Item is a photocopy of an article that came out on 2/13/1992. The name of the newspaper is not listed on the page, but it is likely from the Southtown Ecconomist, given the writer, Hamid Razik is a staff writer who has written other articles for this newspaper. The article is about a Burbank city council meeting. The main focus of the meeting was a project for street reconstruction. Also at the meeting, a couple of aldermen (John Pyle and Lester Soliday) asked about the status of the ongoing issue of the possibility of Prairie Trails Public Library changing its name originally suggested by Mayor Harry Klein. Klein stated that he wasn't going to do the library boards job for them and if they did not create a referendum on it, they did not care about the public's opinion. He said he had sent letters to the library board president Dorothy Bingley about it. The library board agreed to add Burbank to their signs, but did not want to create a referendum to vote for as they felt it use money they could better spend on library materials, which Klein disputed. Other concerns brought up were graffiti, hiring firefighters and a few other issues. |
