SALEM The city is planning a street paving project this summer with an estimated $1.2 million cost, hitting a large number of streets and alleys that need attention.
“Everyone living on these streets will benefit from the paving,” Mayor John Berlin said.
The cost will be covered by the additional .25 percent income tax approved again by voters in 2019 for another five years. He said it’s “quite exciting” to continue with more paving thanks to the voters.
1/1 THE madam of a series of “pop-up” brothels in York and North Yorkshire has been jailed - and may be deported. Xiao Yan Kang was part of a gang that rented premises for two months to use for the sex trade. They put ads in national newspapers such as the Daily Sport to attract customers, said Ian West, prosecuting. “Observations (of the brothels) were made of numerous males seen coming and going through that period from morning to late evening,” he said. Each paid £60 for half an hour with a “working girl”. “This defendant is the madam,” said Mr West. “She was the in-house manager.”
