PAVEMENT FOR N. MAIN
[The Welland Tribune and Telegraph, 5 May 1921]
A motion was passed at the meeting of the City Council on Tuesday instructing the City Engineer to get estimates on the cost of paving North Main Street from West Main Street to Mill.
Alderman Scott stated that it was an injustice to patch up the road as the city had been doing in the past. The majority of the citizens in the city would get the benefit from the road. Concrete was the only system.
“Welland has fallen behind in permanent paving,” continued Alderman Scott, “and the residents of this part of North Main Street are very much in favor of paving the section of the road.”
He favored putting down a concrete pavement and indicated that he would take action to have future pavements put down on the 100 per cent basis.
Solicitor Gross explained that to do this a vote of the people would be necessary.
